Is this a bug that is fixed in the next firmware, if not what should i
file this against?

Thanks for the clues, Michael

This tends to confirm the theory that removing SD cards can help a device that 
is refusing to boot. Obviously it shouldn't be possible to get a device into 
such a situation but clearly something is happening in the boot sequence 
whereby a corrupt fs can prevent the device from booting.

Hopefully it's fixed in the next firmware, I don't think anyone has posted 
technical details about what exactly may be happening and why SD cards result 
in a boot failure.
