Hi,

I wonder why I am getting this strange error while I am trying to Burn bootloader to my board in designlab?

Arduino: 1.0.8 (Windows 8), Board: "Papilio DUO FPGA 512KB - ZPUino"

Error while burning bootloader.

java.lang.NullPointerException

After watching the Designlab introduction tutorial videos, I did not see any usage for "Burn bootloader"! Is it an option that works only for programming the AVR chip in Papilio DUO board? If so, is there any way to burn the bootloader for those sketches that are not associated with any Hardware project (e.g. blink example) in designlab IDE? (actually a way other than loading the .bit file manually to the FPGA).

regards.
