![]() If it's your first time, you must download the full build which is not the default.ģ. I also used ACID to download the correct build. I used ACID to determine which firmware version I had (1.01a).Ģ. These tips should help you understand which parts of the various FAQs and instructions you can ignore, and which you must pay attention to.ġ. I was doing this on a Macintosh, so some of the windows tools don't apply. Yesterday I succeeded in installing CHDK on my S100. I was hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction. I used ACID to download the appropriate version of SDM for my camera, which is running the 101.B firmware. I tried ASSIST, but it won't format or partition my card, which is a fairly standard Lexar 32GB SDHC. When I try reversing the partitions to solve the issue, I end up with it running, but my DCIM folder gets written into the FAT16 folder with no memory to take pictures. However, the camera often writes CHDK and DCIM folders to the designated SDM partition. ![]() I was hoping to make a single bootable FAT32 partition, but that does not seem to be supported in SDMInstML (I use the command script to get root access), so I went with a dual partition FAT16 (SDM) and FAT32 (CHDK and DCIM). I've tried all of the provided tools, but only got close to operational once. ![]() I was hoping you could tell me what I'm doing wrong. I've been trying to get SDM to work with a S100 and Mac OSX 10.8.2, but to no avail. The DISKBOOT.BIN file is the only crucial difference between SDM builds for different cameras.įirst, thank you for all the hard work with SDM. copy the 'unofficial' DISKBOOT.BIN file for your camera into the root directory of the FAT16 partition, overwriting the one for the A570. use that photo with ASSIST to download a build and install it.ģ. the Canon A570) on the web and download it.Ģ. locate a photo taken by a camera which IS supported now (e.g. One simple trick way to install SDM for a camera which isn't officially supported but for which you have the necessary DISKBOOT.BIN file (provided unofficially by David Sykes, like the 100k build for the s95) is this:ġ. See the list here - the key is the OS release - #0047 is the first to support FAT32 booting - as you can see, the s95 was the last Canon P&S camera not to do this and the A3300 the first). ![]() However because it was released in 2010 the s95 does NOT support booting from FAT32 (single partition) large cards, you will still have to use 2 partitions for cards bigger than 4Gb. ensuring the CFG file settings make USB triggering work 'out of the box', making a simple intervalometer script the default etc).Īs soon as David Sykes releases SDM 1.86 the s95 will be officially supported by ASSIST. I intend to add a customisation step at the end of the install process to make things easier for KAP or PAP (e.g. All this means that once you've dropped the photo the apps know exactly what they have to do. They also know that post-2011 Canon cameras can boot CHDK or SDM from FAT32 cards (and hence don't need two partitions on cards bigger than 4Gb). ![]() The apps take care of any necessary partitioning or formatting (and do neither if things are already OK). STICK (Simple Tool for Installing CHDK) installs CHDK No options or choices - all you have to do is drop a photo on the app and click a button to go through the entire download and install process.īoth apps (written in java) are cross-platform and run on OSX, Windows (XP to Windows 8) and Linux (Ubuntu at least).ĪSSIST (Automatic Simple SDM Installation and Setup Tool) installs SDM With a prod from David Sykes, I've written two new apps which make the process much simpler. Many here have found the process of installing SDM or CHDK a tricky process - even with my ACID, SDMInst, WICKS and LICKS apps. ![]()
