title: Can't flash with avrisp mkII in avrdude Version 6.0.1
body: <p>I have had problems with <a href="http://www.ehajo.de/baus%C3%A4tze/bedrahtete-baus%C3%A4tze/ateval-atmel-evaluationsboard.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> programming board. It is set up correctly seems to be an AVRISP MKII. </p>
  
  <p>I received the following error messages upon flashing with avrdude:</p>

  <p>It is hard to identify the issue since my version of the programming board doesn't have such great documentation.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
