Original description

The STK500V2 bootloader is comparing the seqNum to 1 or the current sequence (IE: Requiring the sequence to be 1 or match seqNum before continuing).

The correct behavior is for the STK500V2 to accept the PC's sequence number, and echo it back for the reply message.

Here is the fix for the stk500boot.c file:

                case ST_GET_SEQ_NUM:
                    seqNum          =   c;    
                    msgParseState   =   ST_MSG_SIZE_1;
                    checksum        ^=  c;
                    break;

This is on line 600 of the local copy of the source I have.
