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.
