I have made some experiences on a Fujitsu-Siemens Primergy RX300
(Serverworks, Xeon with HyperThreading, MegaRAID) today. I was able to
boot the 5.2-BETA ISO from CD-RW after being unsuccessful with floppies
yesterday (not that I'd particularly trust floppies...)

Here's what I've found so far:

1. KEYBOARD LOST
   I need to explicitly escape to the loader prompt and
   set hint.atkbd.0.flags=0 -- with the default of 0x1, I am unable to
   use the keyboard (tried twice, without and with re-plugging the
   keyboard, to no avail). The exact reason is unknown, the machine has remote
   management hardware on board which might interfere.

Can this flags=0 be made the default or would that interfere with USB
keyboard and headless configurations?

2. LOCK ORDER REVERSAL
   I let the machine buildworld, build a kernel and cvsup ports+doc at
   the same time through screen. Both buildworld and the kernel make
   were launched with "-j2". The machine then caught a LOR, but it may
   have happened after these tasks completed, neither make nor the cvsup
   reported an error. Here's the dmesg:
