If you know what you want to build (i.e. core-image-sato), then
telling bitbake to fetch the sources when you do have a connection
should be mostly sufficient:

$ bitbake core-image-sato -c fetchall

This will download all the sources and put them in the downloads
directory that you've configured in local.conf.
