....for thickies like me.

I simply can't install ML and what I need is a full procedure including formatting cards etc for example using macboot for OSX?

Please I need help!!!!

Format card in cam.
Insert card into cardreader.
Copy extracted nightly build to card.
Insert card into cam.
Run Firmware Update.

Try to use a small card (32 GB or less, 4 GB recommended) for first time install.
If it works with a small card but not with the one you are trying to use: Now it's time to think about using Macboot.

Thanks Walter, I've done this a many times, something is just not working for me?
Exactly what folders need to be put onto the Card? So far I've tried it with a 16mb card, my smallest.

"Copy extracted nightly build to card". You need Autoexec.bin, the ML-SETUP.FIR file and ML directory (and all files and subdirectories within)

And what does "not working" mean?
Error messages available?
What is happening when?

Done it, I didn't update the firmware on the camera, not reading the instructions, apologies thanks Walter
