Well so far two problems with 5.1-BETA. Booting with one of my Raylink
wireless LAN cards plugged results in a panic during device probes (I guess
that's either the if_ray driver of mine or something strange with NEWCARD
and
these cards). With the card removed, the boot gets to mounting md0, but
hangs.
I think ACPI is the culpritt as there are lots of ACPI errors scrolling
past - although it does detect ac power insertion etc.
