well, "unstable" is what its says... Especially now the unstable is a new 3.7-
kernel and it is not sure if it works smoothly with everything else in the
"unstable" partition.

You should be able to create a SD card using the latest "production" image.

Then, press the AUX button and hold while inserting the battery. This
forces the whole boot to come from SD card, i.e. a known system and
resets the u-boot environment variables.

It will enable the display and turn it red (then you can release the AUX
button).
