The size of the 1st partition is fixed to 2MB in the code (not changeable in the CHDK menu), but you can change it there and compile your own build, if you know how, using whim’s CHDK Shell, http://drop.io/gcc_for_chdkshell

Normally the creation of a partition deletes all data on the card, the swap command should not delete any data, but you should test this first!

The partitions can also be created manually with a card reader on a computer, the 1st partition must be less than 4GB and formatted with FAT16. Note: as the CHDK download files grow in size with later versions it may be necessary to partition with a computer anyway - to make the 1st partition larger than 2MB to accommodate the larger file size.

To prepare SD cards, and make them bootable for auto starting of CHDK, the applications Cardtricks, or SDMInst.exe, are used on Windows OS, and

SDMInst for Mac OS. For installation information and instructions, see the supplement to this User Guide : CHDK Installation Guide or -
