Could someone confirm that the RC2 image on sourceforge is OK?

Wanting to play with it again, but having downloaded, uncompressed and dropped it to a SD card the pi doesn't boot (blank/black screen, no boot information scrollng up the screen, nothing).

I've swapped the available Pi round to eliminate a Pi problem and swapped round SD cards to do same with those (writing the latest Raspbian image to the same cards boots no problem)

Raspyfirc2.img is showing 13/02/2013 18:46 1,945,600 KB (1,992,294,400 bytes in properties)

I cannot believe all the wierd things that happen [1] but I am determined to persevere.

I have downloaded and decompressed a few times and every time the same. I've noticed that the lights are flashing on the pi so it's busily doing something, however the monitor stays on standby/blank.

I'll investigate further.

[1] I've not even mentioned that my PC has started to bluescreen whenever I power a pi from the PC's powered hub, but only if the pi is connected the hdmi. If the hdmi is disconnected or I power the pi from one of the PC's on-board USB or from the NAS, it's fine. Wierd, but these days I'm never surprised!
