I believe the MAKERULES environment variable should be rooted wholly within cygwin, meaning no backslash (a-la Microsoft) directory separators. For example, here is my setup on a WinXP machine, from a cygwin shell: $ env | grep tiny CLASSPATH=C:\cygwin\opt\tinyos-2.x\support\sdk\java\tinyos.jar;. MAKERULES=/opt/tinyos-2.x/support/make/Makerules TOSDIR=/opt/tinyos-2.x/tos TOSROOT=/opt/tinyos-2.x Note that CLASSPATH does have backslashes. I *think* this is OK because the variable is used by the java app, which is MS native and not a cygwin app (someone please correct me if I'm wrong). The build tools are all cygwin apps and so shouldn't use microsoft paths. If you need to access the PC filesystem outside of the cygwin directory, use the /cygdrive/... path. The environment variables for tinyos are usually set in /etc/profile.d/tinyos.sh. Perhaps the variables are being given the wrong paths there. After edit, exit your cygwin shell and restart another one for the changes to take place (or source the /etc/profile.d/tinyos.sh file).
