It make sense. When you burn the bootloader for first time, the rest
of flash memory is empty. Then you install the driver and after that,
it does not matter if you have already a program uploaded, your driver
is already installed. When your new bootloader will be ready, I will
remove the driver and start again from zero.

Is ok, I know the procedure. And is ok for me to work on command line
and under Linux (until now I tested only Pinguino IDE which can upload
also the program) but I have friends which prefer Windows and an
application with graphical interface (Pdfsusb). For them I tried this
procedure from zero.

P.S. An IDE written in python for JAL will be great... and... maybe is
useful if you add on your blogs tips for using your python uploader.
