Hi fe50,
it's the least I can do after all the help and advice you and others here have given.
As regards the article, as I said, if it helps someone then thats all good.

Enjoy,

Yes, no problem.
Now I have some time I'm setting up a toolchain under Ubuntu to try the disassembly fun and games.

I am very interested in CHDK to be ported for the SX200 IS ! As I have also one, I would gladly help you as much as I can.

Hi,

I've made some attempts to dissasemble but no success
It seems that FW dump is broken. See dump at at offset 0x00012760: 03 78 03 78 0A 55 AA 50 00 24 82 FF, these 12 bytes are bad. There are other similiar broken bytes. It looks like pattern xx yy xx yy 0A 55 AA 50 aa bb cc FF.
I removed these bad bytes from dump, and it seems be better, but it's not safe and we can't rely on

Is there any chance to correct and make another good one.

cheers

fajo,
Great news, I am not alone, I was begining to think I was the only one interested in this.

I don't have the original (before trimming) dump file so I have re-run the dump (three times).
I have now trimmed them and then checked 0x00012760 in each, ALL three dumps are the same.

I will do a differences on them and if all are the same in all areas it can only mean that the pattern is being generated at camera end.
Don't know how but I can take a look.

I'll let you know, but I don't think it will be today, watching RealTerm do the dumps is just soooooo boring, I'm off to the Pub.

Cheers.

If you have enough of the dump to get CHDK booted far enough to run a task hook (basically through platform/<camera>/sub/<sub>/boot.c boot() ), and can find a couple of file IO functions, you can do a full dump that way. Pick a task that will be started fairly late, put code to write out the rom to a file in your hook, and then continue to the original task.
Don't forget what the H stands for.
