errordeveloper / mist Goto Github PK

Hi Ilya,

Thanks for creating this code repo and allowing people to experiment with it.

I have one issue (which is more likely a setup issue on my end). I followed the usual steps to build in Contiki on this one and it was not successful. The steps I followed are:

My system - Standard Ubuntu 12.10

1. Downloaded the 1.0.1 version of the mist zip file from the git and extracted it
2. Installed the MSP 430 toolkit by sudo apt-get install gcc-msp430
3. On a terminal went into .../thingsquare-mist-1.0.0/examples/hello-world/ folder
4. Ran the command - make TARGET=exp1101 hello-world
5. The build failed with the last few lines as shown below:

msp430-gcc -mmcu=msp430f5438 -Wl,-Map=contiki-exp1101.map hello-world.co obj_exp1101/contiki-exp5438-main.o contiki-exp1101.a -o hello-world.exp1101

Can you please comment on if I have missed something or if I need any more specific tools to be able to build it. Also, can you prepare a one page readme file to mention the steps for building and flashing to a platform (for example exp5438 with cc1101 radio).

Adding additional Details

1. When I try to run the command - make TARGET=mist-exp5438 hello-world - I see another issue as shown below:

2. I have tried making both the target under Instant Contiki VM as well and have seen the same issues repeated.
