When you are directed below to update the firmware do the following: -
• Ensure the auto reset jumper at the top of the Melzi is fitted.
• Use the Tools / Board menu option to set the board to “Melzi W/ ATmega1284p 16mHz”.
• Use the Tools / Serial Port option to select the correct USB port.
• Press the play button.
• Wait for ”Done uploading” to appear.
• Save your changes with the save button.

Make sure the auto reset jumper is installed at the top of the Melzi. This is required for loading
firmware but has to be removed for stand alone operation from the SD card. The power jumper in
the middle of the board should be set to VREG to power the Melzi from the PSU. The USB position
can be useful for loading firmware before the board is installed but the 5V at the end of a USB cable
is a lot less accurate and more noisy then the regulator output.

When the nozzle is just touching your feeler object, take the Z value with M114. Subtract the height
of the object from that and then subtract the result from the Z_HOME_POS in the firmware.
For example, if it thinks it is at 7 when it is actually 8 then Z_HOME_POS is too small by 1mm.

.My issues now are all related to using skeinforge and pronterface as the printer keeps setting the wrong temps and trying to print outside the build area. I couldn't agree more that a guide on going from an STL file to a final printed object on the Mendel 90 would be brilliant and am supprised that there isn't already something similar online considering the popularity of these excellent kits.
