Hi all

I'm a new user trying to install Magic Lantern but been a photographer for years and work on quite a few open source projects. I am having an issue understanding the installation instructions (I have a 6D mk1). I've followed Step 1 and am now half way through Step 2 but am stuck. Specifically I'm stuck on "Launch the Firmware Update process and follow the messages on the screen".

I will describe the steps I took and what I expected to happen

1. Did all of step 1
2. Took my card out of my camera and put it into my computer where I formatted it and copied the files onto it
3. I put the card back into the camera and then turned it on
4. I turned the camera on, assuming that the "Firmware Update process" would happen then, there is no information on what to do to make this happen, if its a camera setting or if I'm supposed to use some software or something?

I feel like I'm probably missing something fairly straight forward which is not explained in the steps, or is it just not working for me?

Thanks very much
