That problem with mass erase command it's not important for me, cause I will 
update all that information on each mote install. My problem consists in that 
I'm not able to program that part, and as far as I now it's possible to do it 
with normal telosb install.

when I do 
$make telosb install bsl, COM5 
it should program this area, am I wrong? because if then I test that infomem 
area with the command 
$msp430-bsl --telosb --password=main.exe --upload=4096 --size=256 -c COM5
all I get is 
1000 ff ff ff ff ff ff ...
which makes me think that I couldn't store the infomem data.

If anyone has an idea of where could be the problem. I tried to donwload from 
tinyos the msp430 but I couldn't manage to solve that.
