Get the Linux Kernel
Let’s use the clone subcommand to our own local copy of the kernel source:

$ git clone --depth 1 -b master \ https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git linux/

What is going wrong here, cannot proceed with the exercise?

Hi @troy_dowler,

I checked on the URL and it's working for me.

Please try the command without the backslash, as here:

ubuntu@master:~$ git clone --depth 1 -b master https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git linux/
