Hi All
I had a brand new 2802i which had an issue with booting up. It only showed the green LED flashing. After attaching a console and booting it again, I saw that it landed in ROM mode. I might have accidently unplugged it while it was booting up the first time, because I needed to replace the PoE adapter.
In any case, here in the Japanese Cisco forum I found the solution:

Thanks @kumatsum
u-boot >> boot
The boot hangs at the initialization process and doesn't proceed until one connects a console and presses enter. It will fail though, as it can't find the recovery image (nor could I locate it on the Cisco download site).
