As I had researching on several installation combinations of tinyos tools and packages which resulted in compiling failures, the packages combination proposed in this guide is the one I found to be a success compiled. Therefore, it is very important to use the correct versions and releases of packages as suggested in this guide. Also note that a warning messages appear during the apps compilation (for example: $make telosb blip) asking to use version 4.6.3 of the msp430-gcc compiler, but I believe the correct version needed is actually 4.5.3. as explicitly mentioned by the TinyOS experts in their particular intro to the TinyOS-IoT page http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos-wiki/index.php/BLIP_2.0_Tutorial . Therefore, simply ignore the warning messages appeared.
The guide below walk you through the installation steps…
