Once I collect this information ill disable the non working features and release the real alpha.
Let's call it a test to see how many people are actually interested in helping out the project by donating a bit of time

I would love to donate as much time as i can possible offer! im having alot of dead hours sometimes on my internship this entire week that i could spend testing some! Gonna keep a close watch on this topic tommorow and i speak from all of us when i say: THANKS ALOT DEVS!
We all (At least i do) appreciate what you done to the Canon film world!

I agree, I had put off checking here and then checked back at the right time.

I am limited in time, and cant risk the downtime of a bricked camera, so i will skip the first wave, if i feel comfortable that it works for others i will jump in and start testing.

Looking forward to the (pre-) alpha!

I need a volunteer for testing the pre-alpha1 build installation. Keep in mind this may be dangerous. The first one to answer below will receive a PM from me with instructions

We have a green light.
The install procedure is not really straightforward but it should be doable by someone with a ML knowledge

WARNING: This will make both your card and your camera bootable. It should also be the only "permanent" change to your camera this build does, but I cannot guarantee you that

Reset camera settings
Reset custom functions
Turn dial to M mode
Place a spare SD in the camera
Do a in-camera low level format
Download the firmware dumper: 01_650d_dumper.rar
Extract it on the card (the structure is similar to traditional ML installs, just with less folders and no autoexec)
Do a firmware update
The camera will do some stuff, dump the firmware and then stop with a solid red light
Turn off the camera
Remove card and battery
Place card in the reader
Run EOSCard, select your card, make it bootable (check all the flags, don't touch the ML or CHDK buttons)
Hit save a couple of times
Download the pre-alpha1 build 02_650D.101.PreAlpha1.READTHEFORUM.zip
Extract it on your card, replace files when asked (if it doesn't, you're probably doing it wrong )
Put card in camera
You know what you do

You can choose what to boot: Canon or ML.
So if ML is not performing right, or you can't use it as you would like, you can boot the camera without ML.

You are properly right, will do the required reading and get to work

Actually, no. With alpha builds the risk of bricking is higher. If you can't afford the downtime then please don't try running them.

I wont, but will do the reading on how it schould be done, so if there is an alpha, i will be ready to go

loplo · « **Reply #299 on:** January 30, 2013, 01:50:55 PM »

Any feedback? Either noone is risking the pre alpha or everybody is busy testing.
