I know this topic is on the shelf at the moment, but would still like to try Beta 4.
I have a Canon 5DC with v1.1.1 firmware.
I have unzipped to the root directly of my compact flash and gone through the update process on the camera.
The first time I ran it I got a blinking blue light. No matter how many times I run the update process, I only get the blinking blue light.
Am I doing anything wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks for all of your hard work!

The instructions aren't too clear.

On your first install you need to do the firmware update with the file named "5dc.111.card bootable.fir" in the root of the card
This makes your card bootable
next you have to do the firmware update with the "5dc.111.ML install.fir" file (as well as all the other ones needed for ML)
This installs the ML bootflag.

There is no message that it was successful. The blue light should come on steady - like the instructions say. Then you have to remove the battery to re-boot the camera.

Blinking light means something wasn't installed properly.

I'm not sure what the camera does if you do the upgrade firmware process with 2 fir files in the root of the card.
after copying all the files over there, I made sure there was only 1 fir file each time when I did the firmware upgrade process and it worked for me.

Found this in the thread which helped perfectly!
