I have an Arduino Uno and I am using arduino 1.0.5 IDE. I followed he procedures for bootloading an atmega328P-PU on a breadboard using an Arduino Uno from the link:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoToBreadboard
I uploaded the ArduinoISP sketch first, made the connections(using the External Oscillator) and then wired it up. Then, I selected the programmer as Arduino as ISP, selected the board as Arduino duemilanove w/ Atmega328P . Then I selected the correct serial port and clicked Burn Bootloader. I got the following errors:
avrdude.exe: stk500_program_enable(): protocol error, expect=0x14,
resp=0x50avrdude.exe: initialization failed, rc=-1 Double check
connections and try again, or use -F to override this
check.avrdude.exe: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14,
resp=0x51
How to solve this issue? Also, can I upload the bootloader directly by using it on the Uno in place of the original chip. If so, how?
On the Arduino Uno, you'll need to connect a 10 uF capacitor between reset and ground (after uploading the ArduinoISP sketch)[source](arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP ) (PS<rant>I'm getting very annoyed by the inaccuracies on the arduino website. New users continue to have to figure out why things don't work, while the problem has been known for years.</rant>) – Gerben Sep 27 at 14:44
