It looks like you're the first.  Are you aiming to step through h_usrKernelInit() to see where it stops?
Yes! Also this will help to get the rest in line...

UPDATE

Current i'm unable to create an usefull dumb.elf for gdb / qemu... look here: Emulating Digicam with QEMU for more info.

But i've testet with led where my port stops at boot.c:

Code: (asm) [Select]
void  h_usrKernelInit() {
    int counter;
    volatile long *ledBlue = (void*)LED_BLUE;

    // ROM:FF811744
    asm volatile (
        "STMFD   SP!, {R4,LR}\n"
        "SUB     SP, SP, #8\n"
        "BL      sub_FFB54A84\n"     // classLibInit     <--- ### STOP ##########################
    );
    counter = DELAY; *ledBlue = 0x46;  while (counter--) { asm("nop\n nop\n"); };
    counter = DELAY; *ledBlue = 0x44;  while (counter--) { asm("nop\n nop\n"); };
    asm volatile (
        "BL      sub_FFB6786C\n"     // taskLibInit

Must be something wrong before this ... But how to determ what cause this mess?

I don't see how moving an immediate to a register could possible cause the camera to hang.

Are you sure your blinking code isn't clobbering some registers the the later ASM needs ? My impression was that when mixing ASM and C, you needed to tell the compiler which registers your ASM touches, as shown here:
ARM GCC Inline Assembler Cookbook in the "clobbers" section ?

edit: although if it stops before the blinks, I guess that wouldn't explain it.

Don't forget what the H stands for.

As I wrote, i've tested it with and without blink code in c and asm... nothing works... I'm really out of ideas about this issus...

Yes!
Something before this must be incorrect which cause the camera to stop late at this point...

Besides, I haven't got much time to look for it at the lasts two weeks...
Currently I'm thinking about suspend or chancel this port... it looks like i'm wasting our time... :-[ ... sOrRy!

Hi, good morning(maybe). Im a Chinese user of IXUS900Ti, I was finding CHDK for 900Ti everywhere but I can't . Thank God, Im grateful to see there's something about it!!!  So, I downloaded the beta version and tried, but it didn't work out. there must be something wrong with my operation. plz help me ::)
at first, I used the cardtricks to format my card, made it bootable and copied the CHDK files to my card. after locking the card, I started the camera. unfortunately, it just dad some lights on it. the lights sparked in turn, endlessly.
could anyone tell me what was wrong with my operation or my camera?
btw, I know my english isn't so good. if there're some mistakes, feel free to correct me. thanx.

You're definitely not wasting out time, just getting as far as the blinking lights wouldn't have happened if you hadn't started the port. I hope you'll find time to look into it again some time, and maybe someone else will pop-up and help out. Your work is greatly appreciated!

This is actually what's suppose to happen, as this is all the current version of the port does. So you've done everything right, the port just needs to be developed further to actually make it usable. Hopefully pixeldoc2000 will find the hints and time he needs to complete the port, otherwise we'll just have to hope that someone else with the right skills will pick up the porting.

As nkh already answered...
The flashing Lights are intended, as this is the only interesting action for non developers as the moment.

Also check your Firmware Version like i wrote at the WIKI.

Sadly i'm unable to get chdk to start correctly at the moment, but i'm working on it, if i have some free time...
