- open your card again in SDMINSTE
Make sure it looks like in your first quoted position ( do another Swap Partitions if need be )
Partition1: Type:1 (FAT12) Capacity: 2 Mb
Partition2: Type:11 (FAT32) Capacity: 7644 Mb
the trick is, the small partition should be active (that is, it is called "Partition 1" )
now, format it (if it isn't formatted yet), and than click Make Bootable -> you now have a formatted bootable FAT12 partition (under the drive select box it should now say (Bootable Card !!! - or something like it)
then, do another Swap Partitions, and format the large partition. Close SDMINSTE and open the card in explorer.
Copy all your CHDK files to the large partition.
Now open card again in SDMINSTE and do Swap Partitions - the small partition will again be "Partition 1"
Close SDMINSTE again, and open card in explorer - your large partition will be 'gone' (Windows does not see it)
but you should be able to see to see the small partition.
Copy "DISKBOOT.BIN" (and "PS.FI2", if available for your cam) to the small partition.
Lock your card (slide the write-protect tab away from the electrical connectors) and put it in your cam
Your camera should now boot CHDK
Note that every time you need to access your pictures you will need to do a Swap Partitions again to make the large
partition visible for Windows, and another one to swap back to make CHDK boot after that.
HTH,
