Long story short:

1- Canon firmware 1.1.3 + ML, everything was working fine.
2- Updated to Canon firmware 1.2.3 + ML, everything was working fine.
3- "Downgraded" to Canon firmware 1.1.3 + ML again and when I try to format the SD card, where ML is installed, I no longer have the "Keep ML" option.

I tried to push the "Q" button anyway, but nothing happens. Everything else seems to be working fine. Tried several ML builds, but it's always the same.

Any suggestion?

Keep ml is not in the 1.1.3 firmware. Anyway, i never had it

Really? Maybe I'm confusing the MKIII ML firmware with the MKII one...

If memory serves me correctly, that feature wasn't/isn't working with 1.1.3.

Exactly ! New great features in 1.2.3 :)

Ok, my poor memory strikes back. Thank you, guys!

I'll pick this thread up since I have the exact problem of the subject, without any downgrading of firmware. When trying to format card on ML 1.2.3 all ML files except settings are wiped, this is regardless of what option I have choosen "... keep ML" or "... remove ML" . SD card installed in slot 2.

Known problem with one of the last builds. Fixed in new build.

ok, thanks for fast response, was searching the forum for a while before posting, where can I find known problem list?

edit: have now verified that the problem is solved in the latest build, magiclantern-Nightly.2014Jul30.5D3123
