As I understand it, the nightly contents you add after installing the stable package first. I have not done anything yet with nightly contents, as I have not successfully installed the stable package yet. Can you help me understand why you suggested extracting the nightly contents to the card's root directory? Thanks.

Are you referring to the picture of the SD card? Which directory should not be there?

leaving computer until tomorrow. Will try this tomorrow and get back to you. thanks again

Actually I'm sure that I did not directly copy the zip file to the card. I opened it first in Finder and then copied the whole folder to the card. What in the pictures makes you think differently? Perhaps I extracted wrong somehow?

When I extracted the autoexec.bin stayed as a zip file. .. maybe this is the issue?

Hence why I asked. Thanks man I'll give it a go.

the second one was prior to eliminating the irrelevant FIR files (I realize it is not on the card in the picture but I assure you it was) and the first is what I just tried on the card.

Just tried that and I am getting the same message....

Yes they are all there. In addition, the fir files of other camera models as well as the INSTALL and USER GUIDE PDFs are present, but as I understand it that should not be an issue...

I am attempting to install the stable package not the nightly build. I believe the fir file is already present... unless I'm not understanding.

Forgot to mention that the SD card is an SDHC 15 mb/s, but have attempted the entire process with a 32 gb SDHC 30 mb/s 200x card as well. Thanks again.

Hi guys,

I am attempting a first time install of ML v2.3 to my 550d (running the latest firmware 1.0.9). On a low level formatted card with a full battery, set to M, with an 8gb sd card, no accessories attached, and all the rest, I am given the message "Memory card containing firmware is required to update" when I go to "install" the ML software. The troubleshooting section of the included PDF suggests that I put a copy of the latest Canon firmware on the card when I go to install. When I do this, it only recognizes the firmware and not the ML files and executes a firmware update as usual as if the ML files weren't there.

I am relatively inexperienced and would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!
