Issues with setting up build environment

I'm looking at getting into rom cooking with this latest cyanogen fiasco, but i'm having errors getting repo set up, and i'm wondering if it's my configuration.
I'm running OS X 10.5.8, everything is updated, and i've followed the whole guide from source.android.com, up to a certain point.
when i run "repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git", i get this error:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/aaron/bin/repo", line 595, in <module>

File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 1079, in _execute_child
raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
anyone else have this error or know how to correct it?
side note, I made a partition on an external hard drive for nabbing the source, i'm CDing to the /Volumes/Android/mydroid before i run the command. ( the partition is HFS journaled/case sensitive) and have all the port stuff installed onto my Mac hard drive

Nevermind, my path settings aren't sticking for some reason. resetting the path solved my problems

Git error...

This error happened after a repo sync, where I was downloading the entire AOSP source. There is no trace of the downloaded source...which is kind of lame as I just waited for a few hours...
But whatever...time to sleep I guess. Let me know if you have any ideas
Here's the error:

error: Exited sync due to fetch errors
I took at look at Google's git site and saw the the the SHA1 matches the one in the manifest file (se attachment).
Line from the manifest file:
Code:
<project name="platform/external/aac" path="external/aac" revision="2bda038c163298531d47394bc2c09e1409c5d0db"/>
I have tried resyncing, and the force option (-f), but nothing has worked thus far.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64, and I have all the required packages for building roms installed. Can anyone help?

after waiting for the next commit it is working now. not sure what was wrong.
