Re: [Amforth-devel] Atmega<any> support

I agree the Arduino boot loader is irrelevant as it gets replaced. If
Amforth can be persuaded to run on the chip (no reason why not it works
fins on a 328) the other differences should be fairly trivial.

Only way to be sure is to try it. If the cost of the board is a touch
steep for a maybe, then either stripboard or breadboard up a minimalist
setup with a blank chip and take it from there. Once you have that
working to your satisfaction buy in a rugedised board.

Mathias's parts files seem to be pretty much there from the limited
experience I have of them.
