AT1284p - Bootloader needed for debuging?

I'm wondering if it is neccessary to use a Bootloader to use the visual micro debugging?

I'm using Atmelstudio 7 with visual micro, arduino 1.8.5 and Mighty Boards for AT1284p.

I'm using a AT1284p but I'm not able to flash the bootloader with the visual micro plugin (vMicro > Uploader > Burn Bootloader).
Also I've got two hw serials (serial1, serail2) but no DTR line (I guess it's used to reset the AT1284p before uploading new code. 

So I would like to programm the AT1284p just with the normal JTAG connection and use one of the serials for debugging with no Bootloader on AT1284p.

I can't get it working. Can you please let me know what's wrong exactly?

BR
Chris

No the bootloader is not required.

On the vMicro>Debugger menu you can set Local and Remote port.

Set LocalPort to whatever COM port you want and the RemotePort to Serial1 or Serial2
