You can get the currently released (1.3.3) version from the squeeze repository. You would do something like the following: sudo echo "deb http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian msp430-46 main" >> tinyprod-debian.list sudo echo "deb http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian squeeze main" >> tinyprod-debian.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install msp430-46 nesc tinyos-tools I think that should do it. > 4.

The msp430-gcc toolchain is a crosscompiler and while it runs on the native host it builds images for the mote's cpu. The above builds a native compiler which isn't used at all in the process of building a mote image. If I'm wrong please correct me. > 5.

Another mechanism is to use stow and put locally added tools in to /opt/stow/nescc (for example) and then use stow to install them into /opt/bin etc. That avoids having lots of things like /opt/nesc /opt/<other tool> .... > 7.

Please if you run into it, send me the particulars so I can fix it in the tinyprod tree. If anyone wants to take a look (its not released yet, I'm waiting for T2.1.2 to release to make the cut), the current working version is at: https://github.com/tp-freeforall/prod, the default branch is msp430-int which includes a modifications to the msp430 core which includes support for many more msp430 processors including the msp430f5438a. The branch svn/current points essentially at the tip of the svn/tinyos-main development tree. It gets moved manually. > Hope that it will help you. > > Regards, > Bracha Hod. > SensoGo Ltd. > >
