I have owned an avrisp mkii for quite some time. I'm trying to use an uno board, to which I will supply plus 5 Volts, and then, I will upload the bootloader into many multiple 328 (the many suffixes I have yet to really understand) mcu's. I fire up the arduino ide, and I supply the plus 5 and hook up the avrisp mkii to the uno, but then I guess I have to put some type of a sketch or whatever into the arduino text editor. I don't know what that sketch or text (or what ever it is) is supposed to look like, I don't know where to get it from, I don't know if I have to tell the arduino ide what port the avrisp mkii is hooked up to, I don't know how to arrive at what that port actually is. The questions are boundless. I don't know any of these answers ????? Any help would be appreciated.
