Hi, To explicitly specify the serial port for Tmotes, use the following syntax: make tmote [re]install[,<moteID>] bsl,<serialport>
For instance, if your program is already compiled, you want to install it on a mote with the mote ID 3 and you somehow know that the mote is using the first USB serial port: make tmote reinstall,3 bsl,/dev/ttyUSB0 The command 'motelist' should show you all connected tmotes. Maybe this doesn't work properly (and hence 'make tmote install' won't work either). Maybe you can get more information with 'dmesg'. Also getting a newer kernel might help.
