[Tinyos-help] Hashsum mismatch with Stanford repository

[David]

Hi Faisal,

the steps mentioned in the link you gave are the same that I went  
through.

1. Install Ubuntu
2. Add Stanford repository
3. Install TinyOS packages

But step 3 never finishes successfully for me. The installation  
process always is aborted with messages that the packages could not be  
downloaded due to hashsum mismatches. :-(
