+Often it is impractical to maintain older applications by porting them forward
to the latest TinyOS version. The TMI approach allows multiple TinyOS trees
to be installed simultaneously, thereby allowing different applications to be
compiled against different TinyOS versions.
The official TinyOS installs the source tree at `/opt/tinyos-2.x`. The TMI
version installs source trees at `/opt/tinyos/VER`. For example, the latest
-TMI tree is installed at `/opt/tinyos/2.1.0-3`. TMI also maintains in its

repository the last few official source trees. At least one must be installed,
and the developer may install others as needed. When installing or upgrading

# Installing TinyOS
By default, the latest TinyOS source tree, with TMI enhancements, and the TMI
[[msp430]] toolchain are installed. At this point, additional tinyos source
-trees may be installed as required. For example:

+ sudo apt-get install tinyos-avr
