[Tinyos-help] error "Direct Parallel Access not defined"

[Mark Bramwell]

Here is what I do on my WindowsXP machine running cygwin....  I have the 
board plugged into com1:





TinyDB- Compiling and installing TinyDB on each mote



cd /opt/tinyos-1.x/apps/TinyDBApp

make mica2 install.0 mib510,/dev/ttyS0                 Compiles custom 
version of TinyDB for node0

                                                                             
      and installs the firmware onto the mote
