For now I solved the error in boot.c and the boot is working now and boots in the original UI.   :)
Now I have to find all the stubs locations. Will post the trunk soon.

Nice work, funnel !

Added this dump to the dumps repository at box.net/chdk; thx for the dump !
Also created the corresponding wikia pages / links: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/SX220

Moderators - i suggest to rename this thread to something like "SX220 porting thread" since a SX230 most probably will need an own porting thread sometime in the future...

I made more progress. I found all the subs_entry_2, stubs_min locations and checked the auto stubs. The camera now boots and show CHDK splash screen. Still doesn't have any functionality. Now I'm trying to figure out the kbd.c to make the buttons work. For now all I can see is the logo and debug data displayed on screen. This debug data shows only when I put debug_led(1) somewhere in the kbd.c code. I don't understand why is that.

For now:
mykbd_task: Buttons not working for now. Jogdial works
capt_seq_task: Started and found out that the code is very different than the old cameras. This will be hard to make it work.
init_file_modules_task: Doesn't crash but the display shows Memory Card Error and the card remains locked.
JogDial_task_my: Works.
movie_record_task: To do
exp_drv_task: To do

@funnel

I found a couple of typo's in your previous source's root Makefile, which are responsable for the 'ghost'
firmware version appearing in CHDK-Shell, corrected/commented version attached.
There's also a properly modified dancingbits.c ;)

hth,

wim

If the 220's firmware will work, will be good to the 230?
Hardware is not very different from the two machines ...

@Frrost

A CHDK version for 1 cam will never work on another cam; if they have a lot in common,
it will just make the porting easier.

Now I got the mykbd_task working somehow, still needs testing. CHDK is showing osd data in shooting mode (temperature, battery percent, memory card status). Data can now be saved on the locked memory card. I cannot bring up the ALT menu.

i still have the memory card error problem in InitFileModules task. I have found that I can format the card in the menu when the error is showing. When the card is formatted everything works normally and data can be stored on memory card, but the card isn't bootable anymore.

I attached the code from that function where the problem is located, if someone can help me with this.

I've updated http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Canon_Basic/Scripts/Dumper#Universal_dumper to hopefully work on cameras with the new start address.

I think the line
   LDRB LR,[LR,#0x1ff]
should be
   LDRB R4,[LR,#0x1ff]

I'm away from my PC right now so I can't be 100% sure; but the above line looks wrong to me.

Hope this helps,
Phil.
