Hi, Please check if you have all prerequisites: https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/wiki/Family%3A-native#os-x
Yes, the command order is reversed, great opportunity for your first PR right there. Latest master vs. latest release: your choice. Releases get more thorough testing. They are tagged in git and also available for download on GitHub. The objcopy error sounds like a harmless error (it's a cosmetic step) and the others might indeed be more interesting. Care to paste? "ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: File exists" Sounds like you are either already using a tap setup for something else, or it's a leftover from a previous run. Clean up by using the remove option of the tapsetup script. In general Linux support is more robust. You can use vagrant to create a virtual Linux environment. Cheers, Ludwig Am 23.
