[Q] Downloading Kernel from Google - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am currently trying to download the Kernel for the Nexus S as described here source.android.com/source/downloading.html in the "Downloading Kernels" part.
The problem is that whenever I start and finish the download afterwards there exists just a .git folder that contains some folders but not the actual kernel source - just a 400 MB .pack file (pack-0826b8c81639016a109ebf4855ff52dca21420ef.pack).
I get the following output from git
Code:
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/gerd/mydroid/samsung/.git/
remote: Counting objects: 2083943, done
remote: Total 2083943 (delta 1744045), reused 2083943 (delta 1744045)

Resolving deltas: 100% (1744046/1744046), done.
Can anyone help me please.
Thank you very much

That's my bad, I didn't mean to create it in the Q&A, and I didn't wanna create it there in the because no one checks there anymore...
So I downloaded everything, now when following the instructions of http://source.android.com/source/building.html I get this...
Code:
[email protected]:~/WORKING_DIRECTORY$ source build/envsetup.sh
bash: build/envsetup.sh: No such file or directory
[email protected]:~/WORKING_DIRECTORY$ . build/envsetup.sh

Well I will be resyncing soon to see if anything new is there...
Why did you add the -j8 at the end of the repo command?

this is the best explanation i have seen:
(you can use -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` to run at full cpu speed. -j# (# means twice the amount of cores in your computer) means jobs. I will compare this to workers, your cpu could be a dual core, quad core and/or have hyperthreading (hyperthreading means a quad core will be seen as having 8 cores, I7 are considered this) well each one of your cores is a worker so one worker would be -j2 meaning the worker will handle 2 jobs. If you tell your workers to do more jobs then they won’t be happy being overloaded just like how any worker would be and will actually be slower. Now -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` means read your computer’s info and run at optimal speed, now why choose between the 2 well you might not wanna run at max speed and just wanna use only half your power so you use your computer for other things during)

pulled from a very nice walkthrough on compiling cm7:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915435
my laptop is a hyperthreaded quad core i7, so technically i could do 16, but i leave it at 8
Wait, I looked at your source and that says the SDK, not the actually ICS ROM...

Closed the other thread and moved this one to general.
OK so, I went to boot up in Linux Ubuntu today, and it won't boot.... ALL of my stuff is in there... I had a UDEV rule file that is setup for all android phones, idk if I can find or make that again... any help? Last night I was D'loading source for ICS, ahh this sucks!
Do any of you know of a windows program to write an ISO to a disk? So I can make Ubuntu have its own partition?

[Q] B2G:remote github not defined

Forgive me for being a noob, but in my futile attempt to port Firefox OS to the Optimus 2X, I ran in to a problem with config.sh that says:

How do I fix "default.xml not available" while compiling Orange Fox recovery and Red Fox recovery?

So I was compiling Orange fox recovery for a device that isn't known too well. I already created a pitch black recovery and TWRP but I just can't get it to work on these two...
here's the full error :

Thanks for your input. Are you sure you're not a bot? lol
it's either you have not install repo or 'default.xml' is not available
install repo by doing the following command
==========
cd
mkdir ~/bin
cd ~/bin
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
==========
doing cd put back you to home directory
also you need to keep typing "PATH=~/bin:$PATH" every time you close the terminal either way you can make this PATH permanent by adding it to .bash_profile
