Error while downloading Rowboat Froyo

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello,

I initialized the repo successfully for downloading the Android Rowboat froyo 
source code,

Then I tried to give the command,
repo sync for downloading the source of the Android, I'm unable to do and 
landing up with the following errors. 

fatal: Unable to look up gitorious.org (port 9418) (Name or service not known)
error: Cannot fetch bionic

Can someone please let me know, what's the problem I'm facing and why the 
download is not happening. 
Thanks in advance

I found the solution for the problem I faced for downloading the Android Froyo 
source, thats "fatal: Unable to look up gitorious.org (port 9418) (Name or 
service not known)"

Here the gitorious.org DNS was not getting resolved to its server address, So i 
used the following command,
$ dig gitorious.org to know the server IP address of the git and replaced the 
following line with

$ repo init -u git://gitorious.org/rowboat/manifest.git -m ManifestName
$ repo init -u git://87.238.52.168/rowboat/manifest.git -m ManifestName

Then gave the repo sync, which successfully downloaded the whole source in one 
shot.

Ankit
