but unfortunately, my camera doesn't even give me the option to upgrade the firmware.

You won't be able to find the upgrade firmware option because the PS.FI2 file is not present in the zip archive for 1.03b beta port. You have to make your <4GB SD card bootable, and the easiest way is to use cardtricks.

Your SD card MUST be LOCKED! Only then you will see "updated firmware" but for now you can only use CHDK with 1.03B by bootable SD.
Read my earlier posts to know more.

This is not true on most (if not all ?) CHDK cameras. The card must be for autoboot. Firm update does not care.

Have You test it with Ixus 120IS fw.1.03B? On my, only in this situation I can use firm update (Play mode). I spend some time looking for it.

I was momentarily hopeful when I found this thread for 1.03B, but unfortunately, my camera doesn't even give me the option to upgrade the firmware.
You don't need to change or upgrade the firmware on your camera. If you have a camera with 1.03B firmware installed, use the 1.03B beta version of CHDK for the IXUS120-SD940

Actually, you cannot upgrade or change the firmware on your IXUS120-S940 at all.  Canon does not provide support for this and CHDK does not change the firmware on the cameras it operates on.

You also cannot use the "upgrade firmware" method for activating CHDK.  Only the bootable SD card with the Lock switch in the "On' position is currently support for activating CHDK on the IXUS120-SD940.   The PS.FI2 file needed for "upgrade firmware" booting is not available for the IXUS120-SD940.

Re: SD940 (IXUS120) porting thread - updated test version for firmware 1.03B
« Reply #365 on: 27 / March / 2011, 16:29:23 »
Found a few potential problems with the code for f/w 1.03B and fixed them. I have no way to test this - two changes were in boot.c  so it might not even boot but if somebody wants to give it a try,  here's the file:

but still it's not saving raw files, yet..

Menus will disappear in shooting mode - this is apparently normal with CHDK.  The menu is still there,  but the real time image buffer has overwritten it.  Pressing the up or down key will bring it back.

Note that menus should not be disappearing in playback mode.  Post here if that starts happening.
