Hi AvrFreaks!
To make a short story long: I have some hardware PCB-mounted in China, with an Atmega48 onboard. On one series they have mounted Atmega48p (I gave them premission, because they are very compatible). My assembler/tech guy in Denmark has to program them. His computer is running OSX 12.12 (Sierra) or Windows 7 on top of it. So here are the problems:
- Sierra, won't install avrdude
- Atmel studio won't install on Windows 7 (for some reason, even though it should be within the system requirements)
- Newest version of Winavr does only have the Amega48 header, not the Atmega48p
- My tech guy does not seem have basic skills with computers (his not a computer tech though)
- I'm in California right now, and he is in Denmark, the other side of the globe!
- I'm getting crazy soooon!!
- I'm getting crazy soooon!!
So:
What is the easiest basic fix/workaround, to make eg. winavr (which seems to be installed by now, but it took me 1 1/2 hour on the phone, so please don't suggest installing a different compiler/environment!).
- Modding my own makefile, so it takes the Amega48 instead of Atmega48p, then there is just a device signature problem to fix? How to fix that in the easiest/secure way?
- Somehow dublicate the Atmega48 header and call the new one Atmega48p? How/where should that be done without making to many troubles?
Hope someone can help!
Best Regards
Ole.
