Nothing happens when I power it up...

[Larsey]

I just got my Raspberry-PI, powersource and SD-card from rs-online. I had already predownloaded Debian and used the windows tool to install it on the SD-card.

But nothing happens when i've plugged the SD-card, ethernet, HDMI and power. I actually dont have a USB keyboard. I have a wireless Logitech but have not tried it. Is a usb keyboard a must have?

The powerled shines bright red does someone have a clue?

It should boot up most of the way without a keyboard, try disconnecting the Ethernet. If you use the new Wheezy beta image, it should get as far as the Raspi-config screen.

I had the same issue, however, botched the SDCard OS install. I re-did it using the Fedora Installer:

There is a Linux and Windows Installer option. Don't forget to unzip the Distro from the compressed file (cause it isn't smart enough to look in the file for the image files).

After numerous attepts to get fedora to start i removed the ethernet as suggested and bosh working... thanks
