While it's OK for a camera to not care about several partitions on a memory card, a PC should be able to handle them ALL, since SD cards are really general-purpose devices. Now for the real drawback: Windows is about as stupid as the camera when it comes to reading the SD card's partition table. For *every* camera model, this code will have to be traced and modified all over again, so this currently only works on the S5 and (possibly) the A720, I haven't heard of anyone attempting to use that code on other models yet. The thing is, this is still platform-dependant code. ![]() ![]() Now I hooked the boot code so it would show the camera the FAT32 partition, so it doesn't know about the FAT16 partition after CHDK has loaded. create a small (32MB) FAT16 partition, bootable and with CHDK on it, create a second, large (~8GB) FAT32 partition for your pictures. An SD card is a normal block device, with a partition table and everything. ![]()
