Hello. I'm new to ML and will likely be putting it on my 5DMII. My question is, if I format and install ML on a CF card, and then I take that card out and put in another one, but I DON'T format that new card and install ML, what happens? Will the Canon Camera just act normal and not have ML anymore? Or will a new card that doesn't have ML mess up the camera if I turn it on?
I know it seems crazy that I wouldn't use ML forever after installing it, but since I'm new and I might have a shoot coming up, I want to have a back up plan in case I'm not comfortable with it yet and want to just shoot normal to get through that shoot.

With a card that doesn't have the bootflag installed, it will work fine.

Or just could just hold the set button when powering up the camera.
