Dear Stanislaw Leschinsky,

This is not surprising as the ATmega8 is not supported by the ATmega is not supported by the AVR Dragon or JTAGICE mkII commando line software. You can see this from the device support list.
I am sorry for the inconvenience. If you have further comments or questions in this matter, please let me know.

Best Regards, Bjørn Liene Gundersen
