I suppose you are using an outdated AUTOEXEC.BIN. Delete ML folder and AUTOEXEC.BIN, copy extracted nightly files and ML dir to card's root.

To be clear, multiverquantique's workaround just resolves a symptom, but not the underlying issue: you only encounter a FONTS.DAT issue when you have not correctly installed the nightly build.  As stated by Walter, you have to delete everything associated with the previous ML build.  Current nightly builds do not have and do not need the FONTS.DAT file.
