Troubleshooting

If the ATmega328 chip does not have a bootloader on it already, you will need to flash it with the bootloader with an existing arduino.

Also,

1. Take of 104 capacitor on d2-d3
2. Take off programmer (reset interferes with flashing)
3. Open the ArduinoISP sketch and upload it to the existing arduino (make sure Tools > Board is set to Uno or relevant)
4. Switch the Tools > Board to Arduino Duemilanove w/ ATmega328
5. Go to Tools > Burn Bootloader
