TinyPilot disc image not working as expected

[DoubleDutch]

So finally managed to get my hands on a Pi Zero W V1.1.

I found the disk image: tinypilot_21122019.img

And put it on an SD card and the Pi boots but even after 4-5 minutes - I don't see the  Wireless network I expect to see. I do get a number of errors on the screen which I attached to the HMDI port:

"can't insert /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tinypilot/modules/v7_modules/rc-core.ko - invalid module format"

Same error fo lirc_dev.ko, lirc_rpi.ko

Also:

ifconfig SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
fc-cache: error while loading shared libraries: libharfbuzz.so.0: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

Besides that, the Pi gets unbelievably HOT (you would burn your fingers on it)

Is my Pi just broken or is there something else going on?

That image should boot by default and make "pypilot" access point if there is wifi.

It may be that wifi is not working on your board which sometimes happens. Can you plug a usb wifi to the otg port that you know is capable of AP mode? many cheap usb wifi are not. Can you verify if wifi on your pi zero works or not?

Your pi is probably broken. I have broken a few pi's sometimes for unknown reasons.

Thanks Sean - it was the PI. They exchanged it and it now boots. Continuing the project!
