Re: [avr-gcc-list] How do i start w/o any ISP programmer

[Douglas Dotson]

I'm new to the AVR processors as well. It appears to
me that the bootloader for ISP is preprogrammed
into the chip. I recently bought a prototype board
from AVAYAN, a Mega32 chip from DigiKey, plugged it
in and programmed it via ISP from my STK500.
