It took some work. I found a few problems with the initial board design so I fixed those up (with wire hackery on the breadboard) and was able to flash the bootloader to the ATMega chip. After I flashed the custom bootloader, I was able to upload a test sketch which blinked an LED on/off. I used the "USR" pin available on the Comet board, tying it to a resistor through to an LED on the breadboard. I can tell having this breadboard is going to be a lot of fun!
