First of all I would like to apologize for my bad english (it's not my native language).
I want to shrink my Arduino projects, unfortunetly I can't (or don't know how to) burn bootloader (I'm working with Arduino since 2015)
So yes, I have tried with 6 ATtiny85 and only 2 of 6 are working properly (I have used ArduinoAsISP). I also would like to burn bootloader to ATMega328p_pu. I recently bought AVR programmer: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1pcs-USB-ISP-Programmer-for-ATMEL-AVR-51-ATMega-ATTiny/32279943405.html and I really, really want to use it, but unfortunately my computer doesn't recognise it as port in Arduino IDE, also I have tried couple of tutorials, but, as mentioned above - still can't burn bootloader to all of ICs. Currently I'm working on Mac OSX 10.9.5 with Arduino IDE 1.6.9
I appreciate all kind of help, and please write it like for newbie, all I want is to burn bootloader to both /in this case/ – ATTiny85 and ATMega328p_pu (and in the future other Atmel ICs eg. ATTiny2313) and programm them with Arduino IDE (only).

The output you posted indicates you're still using the Arduino as ISP. Is that correct?
Please post the output in the forum message instead of attaching it unless it's longer than the forum will allow. USE CODE TAGS(</> button on the toolbar).
Well, as mentioned, all set up propperly as in screenshot and

Error while burning bootloader
I have added 10k resistors between RESET and VCC, and guess what?

You definitely need the 0.1uf cap between Vcc and Gnd. It needs to be close to the chip too - I got boards manufactured that were no good because I put the decoupling cap too far away from the chip (it wasn't even very far) - it would write the first page of flash, then reset itself when I tried to program it.
Also, what settings were you trying to write to it? Were you setting it to use an external crystal without connecting an external crystal? That will brick the chip until you connect one.
I added 1uF (or I can try with 0.22uF) cap between VCC and GND (over the chip), also a 10k pullup resistor RESET – VCC, and I want to burn bootloader with 8MHz INTERNAL CLOCK, thats all. Still doesn't work
