Magic Lantern Firmware Wiki

Hi, I wanted to add to the wiki, but the page is locked.

I had problems installing ML on one of my SD-Cards (Transcend 16GB Class 6) and was searching for a solution that works under linux. If you think this might be useful wo other users, feel free to add it to the wiki:

Under Linux you can make the settings described under http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Bootdisk for FAT32-partitions as root with the following commands on the command line (replace XXX with the device-name of the (first) partition of your SD-Card, something like "/dev/sdc1"):

  1. sudo su
  2. echo "EOS_DEVELOP" | dd of=XXX bs=1 conv=notrunc count=11 seek=71
  3. echo "BOOTDISK" | dd of=XXX bs=1 conv=notrunc count=8 seek=92

The first command makes you root ("Administrator")

The second command writes the disk name to the partition.

The third command writes the Bootcode.
