canon SD550 firmware

Hi there, I am brand new here. For the SD550, it says only 1.00f and 1.00g firmware work. Of course, I have 1.00h, which is not supported. Can I load either f or g onto my camera safely so it will work, without screwing things up? I looked at the cannon site and cannot find any firmware for that model.

Thank you very much in advance!

No, the CHDK versions for the SD550 1.00f or 1.00g will not work on your 1.00h version.
You can give it a try, but it was reported in the CHDK wikia that it will not work; when the camera crashes, just remove the batteries...

How about the actual firmware, can that be changed on my camera?

@funlog

it's usually safe to try ... but useless i'm afraid in this case, here's the last 2 posts in the porting thread: http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,1888.msg30717.html#msg30717

there is a dump available for 100H, according to the cam's page on the wiki:
