That is much different than "installing TinyOS onto the GuruPlug".

What you are actually doing, and this is directly from the Blip Tutorial,
is "Installing an IPv6 Edge router".

If you had said that at the outset it would have been much clearer as to
what you are trying to do.

Do you understand what I am saying?

That isn't installing TinyOS on to the GuruPlug.   So this is a
communications problem.  Meaning I don't understand what you are trying to
say.

What you need to do is simply install the edge route (which Stephen called,
driver/ip-driver, after it gets built) on the GuruPlug.

While the source code for the edge router (driver/ip-driver) is part of the
TinyOS source repository, it technically isn't part of the TinyOS operating
system which runs on embedded processors such as the msp430f1611.    It was
a convenient place to put it.

You want to use the GuruPlug as a communications gateway between the Mote
IPv6 net and different IPv6 (connected?) network.   You will also want to
run some form of base station to actually collect the data from the
resultant network.   That can run either on the GuruPlug or on another node
on the net.

You don't need to install TinyOS onto the GuruPlug.   The only thing you
need is the gateway software.    You can either compile it on another
machine and then install it on the GuruPlug or possibly do everything on
the GuruPlug.

You mission is to figure out how to build that software.   Do it on a
reasonable development machine.   You will need to at some point be able to
compile it for the ARM so you can have the GuruPlug run it.

That is left as an exercise for the student.

In no way is this "installing TinyOS" onto the GuruPlug.   Hopefully this
clears up some of the confusion.
