Hold the RECORD and DOWNARROW at the same time during startup, till the unit reboots.

How long does it "hang" it can sit for a good 5-10 minutes some times.
Also try disconnecting your HDMI
not using HDMI and it was hanging for 45 mins at least before I gave up
well I tried that twice, after it reboots I hear the hard drive just cranking and it does nothing
