I am starting a project with a Pic32, and was searching around for a bootloader when I cam across your page. Thank you for your effort. I found exactly what I was looking for at http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=1824&appnote=en536741
Although the bootloader uses the Serial port it appears to be complete.
I've started a wiki page here to try and summarise the available (free) bootloaders:
http://code.google.com/p/pic-bootloaders/wiki/AvailableBootloaders
It'd be great if people could update it as they find other ones, hopefully helping make it easier for people to find the more appropriate one quickly.
I cannot find one for internet bootloader. Does anyone have?
The ds30 Loader now supports the following Microchip familys: PIC18F, PIC24F, PIC24H, dsPIC30F and dsPIC33F .
