You can not write a "bootloader" for the 12Fxxx PIC.
You have to have a "programmer" outside of the chip.

But by using two PIC's, one acting as a programmer, the
whole setup could be seen as a "bootloader" from the
PC side. An "embedded Wisp628" :-)

But then, you'll need much more PCB space so the whole
idea with using the 12Fxxx PIC in the first place is lost.

Maybe the second PIC could be included in a kind of
"dongle" on the cable between the PC and the device
with the 12Fxxx.
