Can't upload program to atmega328 SPI

Hi! I need to use the arduino ISP to upload sketches. I have no problems burning bootloader and communicating with the chip so it shouldn't be a wiring problem but for some reason it wont work.

When i try to upload code using the "arduino as ISP" and ATmega328 on breadboard(8mhz internal clock) I get a sync error (avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0xff).

Using avrdude i get the following specs;

avrdude done. Thank you.

Any ideas? Going mad pretty soon.... :confused:

After 8 hours of error checking, 5 minutes after posting this i found the solution.

In case someone else runs into the same problem here goes;

In the board.txt, check "atmega328bb.upload.speed=57600"

Change the baudrate in the ISP sketch to this value (57600).

Dats it..............

ISP and SPI both mean something but are very different from each other. Please fix the title.

I was using SPI to upload sketches, what's there to fix?

Eighteen months ago, the OP wrote "When i try to upload code using the "arduino as ISP"" and never wrote about SPI.

Using "Arduino as ISP", the "programmer type" should be "STK500v1", not "Arduino"
