I would check those files that you installed again. It sounds like
your files have extra line feeds or carriage returns (ie, they're in
DOS format instead of UNIX format). Convert the ihex files to UNIX
format and you should be fine.

Hi �kos,
I'm using tmotes on gentoo, but with tinyos-2.x, so there are some
things that I can't help you with. It seems that moteiv has some
extensions to tinyos-1.x (boomerang, http://www.moteiv.com/software/ ).
For some reason they did not explain how to install these extensions on
the page you mentioned. With this pure tinyos-1.x installation some
things might not work. In my experience tinyos-2.x works well with tmotes.
To compile a sample program, go to the directory with the sample program
and run "make tmote". To compile and install it (on the first mote the
program finds), type "make tmote install". To just install it (once you
have already compiled it), type "make tmote reinstall". The "install"
and "reinstall" parameters take an optional argument to set the mote id.
So you could compile a program once with "make tmote" and then install
it on several motes with plugging in one mote at a time and each time
call "make tmote reinstall,x" where x is the mote id.
To test the Blink application, go to wherever you installed tinyos (for
instance "cd ~/tinyos-1.x") and then change to the "apps/Blink"
subdirectory. Plug one mote into a USB port and type "make tmote
install". This should compile the Blink application and install it onto
the mote.
Cheers,
Urs

Hi,
I'm very new to TinyOS in general, I just got two MoteIV Sky motes
(http://www.moteiv.com/products/tmotesky.php), and I'm trying to get
them work from under Linux (Gentoo to be specific).
I've followed instructions on how to install the TinyOS environment from
here: http://www.moteiv.com/community/Tmote_Linux_install . I can list
the mote I plug in to my laptop via the motelist utility.
But, frankly, I don't know where to go next. I was looking at the
tutorials & other information on the tinyos.net site, but it speaks of
the mica mote platform, whereas the MoteIV mote is msp430. So I don't
even know how to compile & download the blink application to the mote.
Moreover, there's a piece of software refered to as Delta in the MoteIV
Sky quickstart guide - and I don't know where to get that either.
Anyway, my main goal is just to set up the motes, so that they 'see'
each other, and that I can read their sensors. I understand this is what
motes are for :)
Can someone give me some pointers on where to look for information?
Thanks,
Akos
