I've done it with the Mega128.

when I looked I couldn't find any that actually worked, I had to 'make my
own'. That said it was 18 months ago and I had very specific requirements.

once you get your head around how its done, its as easy as falling off a
log.

> 4. How to download the Bootloader

you must program the bootloader using an ISP, I used CV-AVR to create my
bootloader. whic simplified programming the device.
