Extend program space by getting rid of bootloader on NANO
I just have a complex program that runs on a NANO. Now when I use my printlns for debugging I am running out of memory.
I read about using a programmer to get rid of the bootloader that uses 2K space on a NANO. I bought an USBTinyIsp and got it to work successfully... almost I can program the nano as I wanted, but I do not get any additional space.
When programming with debug printlns I run into the same message as before which states the same maximum space within (I guess it was 30700).
Why is this the case? I thought the bootloader gets overridden when using a programmer and so frees 2K of programmable space.
Please note: I am not asking how to optimize my program code! Thank you for taking notice ;)
Thank you very much.
