does the arduino uno have a safeguard build in to prevent being able to burn the bootloader to the chip that is on the board?
i have the uno and i have been searching everywhere and the same thing comes up
you need either 2 arduinos or to breadboard the chip.
why cant i burn the bootloader right on the board i should not have to slave another board or put the chip in a breadboard?
i have the programmer set to avrisp mkii
and the port set to /dev/cu.usbmodemfd1331 (arduino/genuino uno)
and the board arduino/genuino uno
still get errors
do i need a .avrdude file or is this a safeguard to prevent accidently burning bootloaders and bricking the chip or is there lockdowns that once the chip is burned to then it cant be burned to any more?
