I'm still trying to make the MoteIV Sky T-Mote work. I got as far as to
be able to compile the Blink application. But, when I want to install it
on the mote, I run into the following trouble:

$ make telosb install.1 bsl,/dev/ttyUSB0;
mkdir -p build/telosb
    compiling BlinkAppC to a telosb binary
ncc -o build/telosb/main.exe -Os -O -mdisable-hwmul -Wall -Wshadow

An error occoured:
Timeout
make: *** [program] Error 1


when running this, initially there's some link activity (some change in
the rx / tx lights on the tmote)

I see it's using tos-bsl, instead of msp430-bsl - might this be a problem?

the mote is there, and I do have permissions to read / write on the tty
device it's connected on:

$ motelist
Reference  Device           Description
---------- ---------------- ---------------------------------------------
M4MWCK52   /dev/ttyUSB0     Moteiv Telos (Rev A 2004-04-27)


Any help is appreciated,
