Marlin Configuration

So I've just downloaded the newest version of Marlin and tried to upload to a Sanguino w/ ATmega1284p (16MHz) and have received these errors:

I have attached SanityCheck.h for reference

Cant reproduce

latest marlin, latest arduino 1.8.5 Sanguino w/ ATmega1284p (16MHz) installed

compiled no errors

Post your configuration.h

Ok so I had Arduino 1.0.5 and 1.6.9 so changing to 1.8.5 seems to have fixed the issue. However now I am getting this:

An error occurred while uploading the sketch

I have selected Sanguino w/ ATmega1284 (16MHz) on COM3 (which is all correct) so cannot work out why I am getting this issue.

Note: So it had been working on Arduino 1.0.5 with an older version of Marlin using ATmega1284 however I noticed the board itself said ATmega644P, so I tried with that and still the same issue.

The upload protocol changes between versions..

find the boards.txt file for the one that would upload (its just text)
and find the new boards.txt file in the new arduino

make the upload setting the same as the old file

eg
it will look something like

atmega1284p.upload.protocol=arduino
atmega1284p.upload.speed=115200

you need to find the correct protocol and upload speed for your bootloader

NB you need to restart the arduino ide if you change a boards.txt file to make it re load it

Ok so I have tried that, and still getting the exact same error.

boards.txt is the one being used in Arduino 1.0.5 so:

atmega1284.upload.protocol=stk500
atmega1284.upload.speed=57600

boards.txt is the one that came with the Lauszus GitHub Sanguino package, and this is unmodified, but I have tried changing all of the different boards upload.protocol to stk500 and upload.speed to 57600 and 19200

Update: So it appears that there is two board.txt files in the Sanguino package, one inside the initial sanguino folder, then one inside the avr folder. Which is it that I should be editting?

boards.txt is the one in the avr folder (and upload.speed=57600 as this seemed to be the fix for everyone)

Interestingly there is no avr folder in sanguino used in Arduino 1.0.5

old arduino only supported avr so no need for a directory. now it supports avr, sam and samd (and probably other processor families too)

The one inside the avr directory is the one you want
