This is normal for an erased chip.

I always use "monitor erase" from GDB. Not sure if "erase" has the same
effect, since that's a GDB command, whereas anything prefixed with
monitor is sent to the server (gdbproxy) without GDB's interference.

MSPDebug should support this chip (let me know if it doesn't work), and
would be easier to use if you just want to program, rather than debug. I
assume you're using an MSP430-JTAG-TINY? If you don't have any luck
getting gdbproxy working, try this:
mspdebug olimex -j "prog pmsa.elf"
