After installing CHDK for fw 1.02b and working with it for a while, it does not start up anymore. I last used the Ultra Intervallometer and shut down the camera at the end. At the next startup with CHDK set to boot, the camera turns on, shows the Canon twilight startup page, the blue light blinks in the button with which I open the CHDK menu (sorry for my unprofessionalism) and the camera turns off.
I tried both versions posted in this forum: the one by Grin (

http://mighty-hoernsche.de/) but none work for me any longer.
My configuration: 16GB card with 2 partitions: first part. FAT16, 16 MB with CHDK copied on, second FAT32, 15 GB with the CHDK dir copied on. Partitioning done in Ubuntu and also first partition set to boot there.
Camera: SX10, fw: 1.02b
Tried all possible configurations:
only DISKBOOT.BIN on card, SD card locked, startup in record mode -> camera turns on and off as described above.
only DISKBOOT.BIN on card, SD card not locked, startup in record mode -> camera turns on and works fine, but no CHDK of course
only PS.FI2 on card, SD card locked or not locked (same result), startup in play mode -> camera turns on, I start a FW update -> it restarts, blue light blinks and camera turns off.
Does not make any difference if I have both BIN and FI2 file on the SD card, it tries to boot the BIN file in Play or Record mode and card locked, and it tries to do a FW update in Play mode and card unlocked. But turns off in all cases.
Any advice please? Could it be the intervalometer script? Or could it have sth to do with having two partitions?
Thank you.
