There is an installation page on the Tinyos Wiki for getting the telos platform working on Mac OS X.

Dear Prof Welsh,

It is nice to see that you are getting encouraging results in porting
TinyOS to Mac OS X :-) I have tried to do it multiple times in the
past. I also followed existing postings by the people that were
successful in doing so. But I couldn't do a successful port. May be
it's because of my lack of knowledge of TinyOS dependencies, or Mac OS
portability issues, or both.

I know that there many other folks like me. If you could kindly post
your experiences, that would be great! I will give it an another try
:-)

Thanks and good luck,

- Vinayak
