OK – Mystery solved!

I had not installed the R4/R7 jumpers on the USBTinyISP that are necessary for boards with loaded pins to be programmed.  Put this in the ‘knowing just enough to be dangerous’ files.

Now it works fine – thanks for the help!

Thanks for the sanity check – good to know that I was at least on the right track :)

The results are more or less the same:

         Programmer Type : USBtiny

         Description     : USBtiny simple USB programmer, http://www.ladyada.net

/make/usbtinyisp/

avrdude: programmer operation not supported

avrdude: Setting SCK period to 4 usec

avrdude: initialization failed, rc=-1

         Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override

         this check.

avrdude done.  Thank you.

make: *** [install] Error 1

I will scrutinize the USBTinyISP!  Thanks for the help!
