Well, the message appeared 3 times :)
BTW avrdude goal is to allow programming a chip without using a
bootloader. And a bootloader is used to program a chip without a tool
like avrdude. A bootloader is designed to get the data to flash from a
media that suits your particular needs (serial link, CAN bus,
ethernet, SPI, etc). There are some bootloader examples on avrfreaks
(http://www.avrfreaks.net) and avr-libc has functions and explanations
to allow you to write your own bootloader. Bootloader memory is
usually rather small on AVR targets (8k max), so there is no generic
bootloader like RedBoot for eCos on AVR targets. (someone correct me
if I'm wrong)
I guess that's why your question about 'a bootloader supported with
avrdude' gave not much traffic on the list.
