[Tinyos-help] tinyOS on debian (was: tools folder not found in tinyos-2.x)

[John Griessen]

If I want to install mspgcc to run with ordinary msp430 mspgcc, I am planning 
to install the mspgcc  from source as I have in the past with the usual program 
names, except configure with program name prefixes and in a different directory 
  /opt/plain-mspgcc, and also configure it to install in /opt/mspgcc, apply the 
mspgcc patch, compile.

Any pitfalls you see running two kinds of mapgcc with different names that way?

Thanks,

John Griessen
