Hi guys,
here is the new version of rcm_platform. 
To install it copy the zip on your turtlebot 
- scp rcm_platform.zip turtlebot at ip_address:.
and unzip it (you can do it where you want because this is the installer and it will put all the files where are needed)
- unzip rcm_platform.zip
Once extracted the package you will have a folder named rcm_platform_pkg; go into it and launch install.sh
- cd rcm_platform_pkg
- ./install.sh

This command starts the installation and configuration of your rcm platform node: it starts creating a ros workspace used by rcm and then installs 2 python packages in your ubuntu distribution. Then starts installing rcmplatform: many of these operations need root permission so during the installation will be asked the credentials. At the end of the installation the configuration step starts: follow the instruction on your shell.
I'd ask you to answer n or no when the script ask to say if your instance is the master. There has to be only one master and is on the TI machine where is the VPN server. Then you have to give a name to your platform node: please, use "turtlebotET" because we already have manually provisioned it. It is provisioned with a custom service logic named "fiware_demo2" which starts a service space (with the same name of the robot), a firos instance on server side and the turtlebot ros driver on the robot side. The firos instance is the old one until we can deploy the new one. Your platform node should a robot, so when asked answer y yes or press only enter (the installer put the default answer between [] so if you push enter that value will be used). The default address of the master is calculated using the tun0 interface so you have the vpn configuration already done to do this installation. The final step of the installation put rcm as daemon in your ubuntu machine and start the compilation of rcmp workspace. At the end you can decide if already run the rcm node or if you want wait and start it manually later (sudo service rcmpd start)

I hope this is clear but if I missed something ask me

Last thing: I've redone the zip to add the password "robotics"

Have a nice week end
