Complete failure to install

[skip65]

Hi
Ive been trying without success to install Rune on a brand new RPi3. Brand new 32Gb microSD, I followed the 'preparing SD card' guide to the letter (I'm on a mac) but no dice. All I get is a solid red light on the Pi and it gets no further than the rainbow screen. Have tried with a different card and a different Pi. Same result. I have downloaded the latest rune image.
I feel like I'm doing something fundamentally wrong. Can anyone help?
Many thanks

Did you use this version?

https://github.com/rern/rAudio-1

Can you connect to the IP address of the RPi3 using a browser?

Hi
Thanks for your reply. I've been using the image from the downloads page here: https://www.runeaudio.com/download/
Should I use the rAudio-1 image instead? Where is the image to download exactly?
No, I can't connect to the IP address of the Pi, there's no activity whatsoever on the Pi when I power it on, apart from a solid red light (and static rainbow screen if I connect it to a monitor via HDMI).
Thanks

Update - I found the image, installed and it all now appears to be working! I have connected to the Pi's IP address.
Fantastic. Looks like all I needed was this gentle nudge from yourself Ears of Tin which I'm very grateful for.
Thank you!

You try booting the Raspberry Pi with a different operating system (e.g., Raspberry Pi OS) to ensure the hardware is functioning correctly.
