I have a ton of these in productio, Supermicro X7DBU 1U servers. They currently run Xenserver and I am looking to get away from Xenserver.
Xenserver installs and runs fine. Ubuntu 12.x installs and runs fine.
With Proxmox:
The server boots to the CD then simply hangs. Running the debug install the install hangs as below:

I am actively seeking to migrate my server farm away from Xenserver.
Any and all help appreciated.

I had a very similar problem on X10 series Supermicro boards. The solution was to turn off a PCI-e power control option in the BIOS. Sorry, I can't remember off the top of my head which one, I'd need to reboot to see the bios but on live servers it's not possible ATM :)

No such option anywhere in the bios.
