ATmega1284P: End to End using 1.0 IDE

retrolefty:

svalls:
Well well, problem solved. I used the connection diagram of wiring.co.org and I was able to burn the bootloader perfectly. Using an Arduino Uno as ICSP.
However I can not upload any skecht, obviously because the 1284p doesn't have USB!

If I buy the AVR ISP MkII I think this will be solved. But: Do I have to change something in the boards.txt in order to program from the IDE directly with the MKII, right?

Not with the current version of the IDE, you just have to have the proper board selected and proper programmer selected from the Tools menu, and then use the IDE's File menu option of 'upload using programmer'.

GREAT!!!!
