Re: [avr-chat] avrdude fails to write STK500 & AT90S8515

[Marge Coahran]

My new STK500 came with an ATMEGA8515L chip instead. Thus, I need to use 
the following command. (Note the different chip specifier: "m8515", not 
"8515".) Could that be your difficulty?

 avrdude -p m8515  -c stk500v2 -P /dev/ttyS0 -U flash:w:$(FILE).hex
