[Tinyos-help] Problems with XubunTOS y Tmote Sky.

[Juan Antonio López Riquelme]

Now all is Ok.

When Windows XP is the host all run ok wihout problems using VMware Server y
the manual of Kevin Klues. But in Windows Vista as host i had problems with
USB devices.

Later i unistall VMware Server and install VMware Workstation
6.0.0build-45731 (the support says that is important introduce the
serial number
during the installation process) and following the same steps of the manual
for Server version and all run OK. I have Vista Ultimate 32 bits.

I think is a good choose to work with TinyOS in Windows Vista. Thanks Kevin.

I have a question: When the XubunTOS is open i can see an icon to do the
installation. I want know if the installation delete the hard disk or only
copy folder and files inside of the folder virtual machine.

Thanks in advance,

Juan Antonio.
