I just had a thought after reading up on MPGuino troubleshooting.
I'll re-check my power and ground but I was wondering....
Some power sources are "always on" but disengage during the start to protect them from power surge/drain. I need to make sure I've got clean always on- no exceptions.
Could this cause the quick reboot issue I've been reading about? (turn key to on...boot loader starts...turn key to start, power drops, key back to on, bootloader lock/freeze?)
This could be a secondary issue for me. I know I still need a real VSS.
