I tried to upgrade my DR1000S from the 1.7.1 firmware to the 2.0RC2 firmware. After the "updating firmware" screen, it seemed to attempt to reboot and I was greeted with 1) a blank screen 2) a green bottom middle LED and 3) a orange status LED.
I tried various forms of resets to no avail. I reverted the SD card to the old 1.7.1 firmware, nothing. *immediately* after turning on the device, I get the orange led and a blank screen and nothing else happens. It does not load the 1.7.1 firmware anymore, so I am effectively left with a brick.
I would appreciate your help in resolving this issue.

Could it have anything to do with the battery level? I know the iLiads used to not load new firmware if it detected the battery was too low. Maybe you've gotten stuck in a state where you can't go forward or back with the firmware because there's some error that it isn't displaying. I'd make sure the battery is fully charged, and then try putting the 1.7 firmware back on it again.
