Hi,
I've just updated CardTricks to also allow making FAT32 partitions bootable,
when option "CF boot sector" is checked, the following strings are written to MBR:
FAT16: at 0x2B "EOS_DEVELOP" at 0x40 "BOOTDISK"
FAT32: at 0x47 "EOS_DEVELOP" at 0x5C "BOOTDISK"
(the quotes are not written, of course)
[edit] Note: Useless for CHDK / P&S in general, only DSLRs can boot off FAT32 partitions
I have successfully tested on 8 GB SD cards and 8 GB memory sticks, but (as non-DSLR owner)
don't have CF cards to test on. Note that, because the program was originally developed just for
CHDK on SD cards, it will not allow you to format cards <= 4GB as FAT32.
For Canon P&S owners there is no new functionality
So...if any of you DSLR guys want to test this on real CF, it's here:
DL location:
CardTricks145 (http://savedonthe.net/download/198/CardTricks145-sfx.html) (535 kB, CT+cmdline+sources) Windows 2000 or newer / no exFAT support
Please note: the cmdline utils DO NOT CHECK the file system - after running
bootableCF32.exe on a FAT16 card, or
bootable(CF).exe on a FAT32 card you will need to FORMAT and LOSE ALL DATA !

great, thanks Whim!
It is much easier for Fat 32 user now. HxD is not for newbie.

It is working fine with my CF 8Gb (Kingston, 133x) and Canon EOS 400D.
Many thanks!!!

How can I do it under linux OS?

How can I do it under linux OS?
The CHDK wiki for making cards bootable is here: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Bootable_SD_card#Linux: (http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Bootable_SD_card#Linux:)
Disclaimer: I neither run Linux, nor do i have a DSLR, so below is just my best guess based on above link
probably the easiest is using a hex editor, note that you need to write two strings into the boot sector for DSLR,
for strings and offsets see the 1st post in this thread.
otherwise, using dd on the command line, it should be something like this (where 'sdx1' is your card's device name)
for FAT16:
echo -n EOS_DEVELOP | dd bs=1 count=11 seek=43 of=/dev/sdx1
echo -n BOOTDISK | dd bs=1 count=8 seek=64 of=/dev/sdx1
for FAT32:
echo -n EOS_DEVELOP | dd bs=1 count=11 seek=71 of=/dev/sdx1
echo -n BOOTDISK | dd bs=1 count=8 seek=92 of=/dev/sdx1
hope that helps,
wim

Thanks, it work very good :)

@Vascom
Happy to hear that, did you use dd or hexedit method ?

I'm used dd.

I've added support in Magic Lantern (http://magiclantern.wikia.com) to write the partition table to the CF card in the camera without having to use dd or Card Tricks to modify the card. changeset (http://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/changeset/36a718cba670/) to bootflags.c (http://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/src/tip/bootflags.c).
This uses the CF device structure that I found to be able to read the raw block, modify it in place, and then write it back to the card.
struct cf_device
{
// If block has the top bit set the physical blocks will be read
// instead of from the first partition. Cool.
int (*read_block)(
struct cf_device * dev,
uintptr_t block,
size_t num_blocks,
void * buf
);
int (*write_block)(
struct cf_device * dev,
uintptr_t block,
size_t num_blocks,
const void * buf
);
void * io_control;
void * soft_reset;
};

I have made this change to my 2.0gb CF formatted as FAT16 using the HxD to use in my 350D.
The camera is able to load the new FW form card, but the camera show "Err CF" in the LCD.
Did u know what i do wrong?? :blink:

How to make big, more than 4GB SD Cards bootable for CHDK or Magic Lantern (windows):
- get this app: http://pel.hu/down/bootCF.exe (http://pel.hu/down/bootCF.exe)
- get this dll: http://www.4shared.com/get/iUI1iIlG/cc3280mt.html (http://www.4shared.com/get/iUI1iIlG/cc3280mt.html)
- put them both in a folder on your drive
- open command prompt (cmd), change to the above folder
- usage: bootcf.exe <drive:>
- when prompted "(W)rite labels", press W key, then press Enter key
- to check, run again bootcf.exe <drive:>
- you should see: "Labels found at 0x47: EOS_DEVELOP, 0x5c: BOOTDISK (R)emove labels"
- just pres Ctrl+C to exit
After this, follow instructions to install CHDK / Magic Lantern on your card.
The application similarly allows to remove the bootable flag from the card, by pressing the R key when prompted.
I tested with a Transcend 4GB card, and a SanDisk Extreme II 16GB card, both run fine!

Hi all,
I've read everypost in this thread and tried to make my 8Gb bootable by formating it with the CardTricks 145 version. I has not worked. I'm using a Eyefi 8Gb Explore2 card and an IXUS100 camera.
I've confirmed that the labels in the bootsector are correctly saved so I guess the problem will be on the camera side. Should this work fr point and shoot or only for DSLR?
Thank you for your help.

Hello & welcome, Jon !
make my 8Gb bootable by formating it with the CardTricks 145 version.
The CHDK autostart method does only work with FAT12 or FAT16 partitions, the max. possible partition size for FAT16 is 4GB.
Although you can make a FAT32 partition CHDK-bootable (i.e. write the tag to the cards MBR), this DOES NOT work.
Cards > 4GB normaly can be used when they are split in to partitions, a (small) FAT12/FAT16 partition to start and a (big) FAT32 one for the data.
But - when i remember correctly, the Eye-Fi cards can not be partitioned / prepared this way due to the special card firmware...
Using the search function you could find some related threads...
-
Thanks for the answer fe50,
I've already looked in every thread I could and in this one, some of the members have published that it worked for them to autoboot with FAT32.
I guess it will not work for me then.
Thank you again.
J

Here's the thread i meant:
* http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,5068.0.html (http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,5068.0.html)
...also read this post:I have been doing a bunch of testing with the new 8GB Eye-Fi card.
You have two options really, because you can not format the card into two partitions and get Eye-Fi to work from the second partition.
First option is to format FAT 32 then copy CHDK onto the card and just using the firmware update method boot CHDK manually.
The second option, which is the one I settled on, is to partition the card to two 4GB partitions, format the first partition as FAT 16 and then load CHDK onto that partition (as well as the Eye-Fi stuff). The second partition is more or less a waste since the camera or CHDK can not access that partition. (If you switch to the second partition using CHDK it will give you an Card Error message)
The benefit to me over the standard 4GB Eye-Fi card was the ability to do Ad-Hoc transfers and handling of RAW data transfers.
You could also buy their older 4GB Pro card and do the same thing, but the older card has to be filed to give the card the ability to fool the camera it has a write protect lock switch.
Furthermore I found that everyone sells the old card for about the same price as the new 8GB card. So whats the difference. The new 8GB card already has the write protect switch. So you can forget the filing of the card.
I guess no matter how you look at it, there is no way to actually use the full 8GB of the card. I faced that reality and moved on just happy I can handle the RAW and Ad-Hoc transfers.

I've just developed a new tool to make CF and SD cards bootable with a win GUI (handles FAT, FAT32 and exFAT filesystems).

Sorry to be such a newbie, but I'm installing Magic Lantern (fw 1.9.0) on my DSLR (Rebel T2i) & am having trouble making my SDHC card bootable! It's a Transcend class 10 32GB (FAT32) & I'm using Mac OS X. Is there any way you could go step-by-simple-step (or provide video-link!) to a simple rookie like me?
-
I've just uploaded MacBoot - an OSX app that makes SD and CF cards bootable (for CHDK, Magic Lantern and Canon Basic). See http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html (http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html)
It's pretty much an OSX equivalent of Pelican's EOSCard.

Thanks, just what I needed!
Only 1 problem, MacBoot says "there are no suitable cards",
is this because I have a 32GB card?
-
Yes, you need to tell it to accept cards larger than 16Gb. Edit the macboot.properties file (double-click it) and change the line "maxsize=16000" to "maxsize=32000".
The limit is intended to prevent you accidentally formatting a hard disk.

NVM I had to change the maxsize (actually had to write it in at 33000) Thanks anyway, I have it now!
are you the author of this app?
-
Sure am! I'll fix the app's arithmetic (32MB is more than 33000MB).

hey,
thanks for great work. Ive been trying to use MacBoot to prepare my SDcard to run MagicLantern on my Canon 550d. Ive followed the instructions and included the necessary files, but it wont work. What settings should I use in the MacBoot window? Ive changed the max. to 32gb.
Thanks!

@joachimrs
It's hard to tell what might be going wrong without more information. Turn debug on and run it again. Then email the contents of the log window to me (daveATzenoshrdlu.com) - hopefully I'll be able to see what's happening.
I should point out that all that MacBoot does is write some strings to the boot sector. It may well be doing that and the real problem is somewhere else. The log should tell me anyway.
-
It seems exFAT filesystem needs further changes. The new EOScard modify the checksums and the backup VBR.
Please test it and share your experiences.

Pelican - I'd like to make my MacBoot app support exFAT cards under OSX if at all possible. I see over in the Magic Lantern forum some discussion of the issue - could you point me at a document that outlines what needs to be done?
By the way, the problem joachimrs reported above turned out not be to in MacBoot.

Thanks to a couple of testers, I've found the (very stupid) mistake in MacBoot that was preventing it making cards bootable for Magic Lantern. I'd completely forgotten to write the BOOTDISK string on FAT32 cards (and only wrote it on FAT16 cards if the "make CHDK-bootable" option was selected). Version 1.02 fixes this - see http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html (http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html)
(apologies for bad link earlier = thanks Pelican)
I am hoping to do something about exFAT soon (but don't hold your breath!)

@arm.indiana
nicely done, though I think the comment "# write VBR checksum (from sector 0 to sector 11) at offset 5632 (sector 12) and sector 24 (sector 24, for backup VBR)" near the end of the bash script is wrong. You are actually computing the checksum of sectors 0 to 10 and writing it in sector 11 (which is the right thing to do according to the wiki at http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/EXFAT_rerated_stuf (http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/EXFAT_rerated_stuf))
-
Thanks to Pelican and arm.indiana I've modified MacBoot to deal with ExFAT cards. Testing shows the strings are written in all the right places and the sector checksum properly recomputed and written back (twice). I'd appreciate a Mac user of Magic Lantern testing it - see http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html (http://www.zenoshrdlu.com/macboot/macboot.html)

Thanks guys,

Turns out that the code I added to deal with ExFAT cards (which worked) had the side effect of screwing things up for FA16/FAT32 (which worked before). Version 1.05, now on the website, should work properly for all cards!
Thanks to Yannick Hagmann for reporting the latest problem.

@gravegrave
Cards > 4 GB can not be directly made CHDK bootable - they need to be partitioned.
Skywalker9 wrote a nice tutorial, which is linked here (http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=6173.msg62637#msg62637)
hope that helps,
wim
PS Note that this thread is in "DSLR CHDK Development" which is confusingly named - what runs on
DSLR's is NOT CHDK ! THe DSLR hacks (unlike CHDK) CAN boot from FAT32 cards.
-
Ok, I really appreciate your development, but just to make it clear:
I have a Canon 350D with firmware 1.0.3 (as suggested) and an 8GB CF card. To make it bootable, and in a safe way, is it enough just with using the Card Tricks V 1.45?? I read somewhere i need a partition, but im not sure if that is what Card tricks actually does.
I just want my 350D with the CHDK tweaks. Particularly Timelapse.
Just to clarify: My CF card is currently formated by the camera.
-
Update: I did it that way. I got an spooky "err 99" after i used it for a while the 1st time, but now it works ok.
Any clue on the "99 err"?
-
I just bought 400d chosen mainly because of this hack.
But I can't make it work. Followed the instructions from here (http://code.google.com/p/400plus/wiki/FirmwareHackInstallation) but when I put the CF in the slot in the final step, the blue button doesn't light. Instead, the camera turns on, but the display is not working. I can focus but not take pictures. Also, cannot turn off the Camera.
Win 7 x64, CF 4GB (3.8GB)
What am I doing wrong?
-
Cameras released in 2011 allow CHDK to autoboot on a FAT32 card. I'd like to modify my OSX SDMInst app so that it can do create such cards - currently Mac OSX users who want to create bootable single partition cards > 4GB (e.g. for an A3300) are out of luck.
My question is this - where does the 'BOOTDISK' string have to be written on a FAT32 card? Is it still at x'40'?
PS - PhilMoz provides the answer (0x1e0) here - http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=6645.0 (http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?topic=6645.0)

Hi,
I searched for this, but found nothing. Cardtricks (145) is intolerably slow when formatting a 4gb card on my Windows 7 laptop. I need to use the windows format tool which is very fast and can do fat.

OK, I've tried everything here, but I just can't seem to make my 64GB exFAT card bootable -- and boot CHDK on my SX230HS camera. I've tried everything, but I still get no CHDK (camera just says card is write protected) when I boot from my 64GB exFAT card.
Can anyone help me get my SX230HS camera to boot CHDK from my 64GB exFAT card?
Notes:
- Camera is SX230HS, firmware 1.01A
- Card is "Komputer Bay" 64GB SDXC card, formatted as exFAT
- Booting CHDK works great with another card of mine - an old 16 FAT32 card
- Running CHDK works great using the "firmware update" method - with all my cards
- I've tried making my 64GB exFAT card bootable using CHDK's "Make Card Bootable" menu
- I've tried making my 64GB exFAT card bootable using EOScard.exe version 1.2
Thanks for any advice!

AFAIK P&S cameras do not boot from exFAT. Only FAT16 (all cameras) and FAT32 (DRYOS R47 and later cameras, which is everything released from 2011 on)
You should be aware that this thread is in the DSLR sub-forum, so things described here may not be applicable to P&S. It's up to you to read the thread and understand which parts may be applicable to your camera.

From the screenshot, looks like the user can select to install either the stable release or a work in progress; can the user select not to install any version of ML at all? I'm asking because EOScard is used for other hacks (400plus, for example), and that feature can confuse users. Thanks!

Perhaps the last version could be archived on the Google drive CHDK Tools (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B08pqRtyrObjSmFqSV8yRUlqbnM)repository if someone has a copy available? The wiki page can be pointed there instead.

pel.hu has been empty for at least some weeks. However, some of its former content has been captured by archive.org . See the down folder there.

Remember you can always rely on whatever tools the Magic Lantern people are using nowadays.

FWIW, the Magic Lantern Install (http://wiki.magiclantern.fm/install) wiki page has the same dead link to EOSCard.exe as the CHDK wiki :(

Pelican (https://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?action=profile;u=12329) has made the download link http://pel.hu/down/EOScard.exe live again. (I sent a PM).
But pel.hu is just a picture of horses and the rest of their stuff is still missing.
