Gary, Paul has pretty much summed it up. You can accomplish what Paul had described by using the following commands. mkdir /opt/cvs cd /opt/cvs cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tinyos login cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tinyos co -P tinyos-2.x Edit your environment variable TOSROOT to point to /opt/cvs/tinyos-2.x. I am assuming that you have installed XubunTOS to the hard disk and not running it from the live CD. If you are running the live CD then you might consider checking out in a directory on your hard disk. Hope it helps.
