I have followed all the steps of Installing TinyOS on recent version of Ubuntu but when i type tos-bsl, it shows

root@rsmjv-Studio-1555:/home/rsmjv/tinyos-main# tos-bsl
The program 'tos-bsl' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
apt install tinyos-tools
root@rsmjv-Studio-1555:/home/rsmjv/tinyos-main#

Can you please help me?

    did you execute the following commands? `sudo apt-get update ` and `sudo apt-get install nesc tinyos-tools ` ? – Yaron Aug 22 '17 at 08:42
  • @Yaron Yes I did that at step 2 – Rensi Sam Aug 22 '17 at 08:53
  • going it again shows `E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).` – Rensi Sam Aug 22 '17 at 08:54

I tried installing from https://github.com/tinyos/tinyos-main and it worked. All the commands in Installing TinyOS on recent version of Ubuntu are working

Try this git clone https://github.com/tinyos/tinyos-main.git

Then type the following commands

cd tinyos-main
cd tools
./Bootstrap
./configure
make
sudo make install`

Try the commands

tos-bsl
tos-write-image
tos-mote-key`
