installation & env of tinyos2

Tinyos sw has two versions, the newest one is tinyos-2.1.1. I tried to install both on my os, but the toolchain which support the tinyos would totally mess up the environment and can not proceed to compile. So I tried to uninstall the tinyos-2.1.1. However, the apt-get autoremove failed to remove the packet and also can not install the tinyos again. Finally, I reinstall ubuntu and use the initial environment to run the program.


When doing apt-get from the server, it will install the toolchain include avr-binutil, avr-gcc, avr-libc, tinyos-tools,msp430 tools and nesc. After finishing doing the installation, I used gcc-v, python -v, java-verion, and nescc -v to check the environment. At last, I used tos-check-env to check the whole env. There are two warning which is jdk version should be 1.4 or 1.5 and the graphviz version is not right. I skipped it to do the test.

Some operation record:

//bug wit apt-get install, "decode error, etc"use this to remove the list
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf

apt-get update

//still have the bug,find some bug with /etc/apt.conf, since use proxy server before, change it to
APT
{
//Options for apt-get
Get
{
Download-Only "false";
Show-UPgraded "true";
};
};

//still can not install the tinyos-2.1.1, reinstall the system. Tried a lot other method, not recorded here.

add the repository in /etc/apt/source.list
# deb http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos/dists/ubuntu lucid main

apt-get update

sudo apt-get install tinyos-2.1.1

//change the env of tinyos.sh

CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$TOSROOT/support/sdk/java/tinyos.jar:.


//test the env

//the env setting is right, problem is the chmod of the file,
chmod 777 -R tinyos-2.1.1

make telosb

//It should be the problem of the version of msp430, I will use old version to try this model tomorrow.

The android env was deleted because of the reinstall of os. :(
