Yes, that one.  :D ewavr guided what to do and gave me files and I performed it on my A650.

Some info of my camera

P-ID:315B Pal D

Firmware Ver GM1.00D
E18
Jul 6 2007 12:41:33

Adj Ver.006.005

ZoomLensError
2007.11.24 23:53:26

IS Firm Ver. 3.01
IS Param Ver. 3.00

(also I noticed - didn't see anywhere written about it, that's why I give a mention - these last letters in P-ID - Pal - are for video system and doesn't play any role...)

Well... with any luck by the time the A660 is released we'll have a really good handle on the way the WriteSDCard functions on a variety of DryOS cameras and will be able to have a universal dumper working flawlessly by then.

Actually the same code works on VxWorks cams as well. Ewavr tested the idea on his A710 and I made minor modifications to run it on my A720.

We use an information which exists on all (tested) cameras but may be overwritten by diskboot.bin itself. So it's still a little luck if it works. A more robust approach would work on DryOS xor VxWorks (and if canon changed the function we use it wouldn't work at all).

Cheers.
