i have a problem. i made my 2gb sd card bootable and now i have a fat16 partition named chdk and a fat32 partition named camcard. i copied the newest ps.fi2 file into the root directory of the fat16 partition but i have got no firmware update button to click in the menu when i'm in the play mode.
the fat32 partition of the sd card is empty and on the fat16 partition there is only ver.req and ps.fi2
i'm sure i made a mistake but i dont know where.can anybody help me. i want to help to find issues in the chdk
note: i have version 1.00c
There's no need for partitioning a 2GB SD card !Partitioning is only needed when you wanto the autostart with a card
bigger than 4GB.
Just format your 2GB SD card in the camera (up to 2GB the fs is FAT16 by default),
then copy the
diskboot.bin and
PS.FI2 files to the card's root folder.
Power on the camera with the
PLAYBACK button (the one with the blue
[>]),
start CHDK with the Canon firmware update menu item (you'll see this item only when you power on in
playback mode, i.e. the lens is retracted).
Now you can select "Make card bootable" from the CHDK menu (in
Miscellaneous --
Make card bootable...).
Lock the card, CHDK now should start automatically...
