Go to http://www.elprotronic.com and download FET-Pro430. The Lite (free) version has done everything I needed.
Use msp430-objcopy to convert the elf output from mspgcc to Intel hex and program with FET-Pro430. You may need to name the file something.hex to get FET-Pro430 to recognize it. Best solution I found prior to mspdebug working under Linux. Peter On Thu, Sep 2, 2010 at 1:38 PM, Mark J.
