Hi,

I've just installed Magic Lantern by dragging the files to my card, and it installed it on my camera. But if I want to have Magic Lantern with my other cards, what do I need to do?
If I drag the files on the other card, will it just work or will it try to install Magic Lantern a second time on my camera?

Thanks!

You have to install it on each new card, either re-run the installation or use EOScard to make the SD card bootable

Ok, so nothing at all is written on the camera ?

Just the camera bootflag (which stays ON even after a firmware update)

Ok, great, so I'm gonna install ML on the other card!

Thank you for your quick answers.  :D

The new version of EOScard can install Magic Lantern files to the card.
The program tries to prevent that situation when you enable bootdisk on the card but not copy autoexec.bin to it.

Also it can remove unnecessary ML files when you don't need them.
