[*]I've built the USBTiny V2.0 from a kit, installed the USB Drivers (libusb v1.12) on Windows XP, SP3. I see the Lib USB Win32 entry in Control panel.
[*]The PC is a Core2 Duo, 32-bit 3.2 Ghz machine.
[*]This is the first time I'm using the USBTiny
[*] Arduino IDE 0022
[*] I've connected the 6pin cable from USB Tiny to the board below, observing pin1 orientation.
[*] The jumper on USB Tiny is removed- I'm powering the board through an external power supply.
I've bought this board
http://www.spikenzielabs.com/Catalog/in ... cts_id=160
changed the regulator to a LM3940, to supply 3.3V and replaced crystal with an 8MHZ crystal.
I need to change the bootloader because the 328 needs to run @ 8Mhz (actually, anything up to 10Mhz) for 3.3V operation.
I've measured 3.3V at Pin 7 of the 328, so I know the regulator is working.
When I plug the USB Tiny into the USB port, the green LED comes on- which indicates USB enumeration was successful.
I've followed these steps to reprogram the bootloader, but I have intentionally skipped step 1, because I have a different board.

I've selected "Arduino Pro or Pro Mini (3.3V, 8Mhz) w/ATMega 328" from the Board Menu,
even though I"m not using an Arduino Pro. I need to select an entry which indicates 328 @ 3.3V, 8Mhz.
When I select "Tools->Burn Bootloader->w/USBtinyISP ",
the Ardunio IDE displays
"avrdude: initialization failed, rc= -1
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check"
I'm not sure what else to try at this point.
Would someone who has reprogrammed bootloaders give some suggestions?
Thanks

You might find something here-http://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/Bootloader
You will get more response by posting on the forum there probably
There was a guy making a bootloader for just such but I cant find it as I can't search the old forum but this might help too-http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaB ... 418637/all
