Did the PowerEdge R210 boot with previous Linux kernels?
If yes, what is the last known good version?

Please tell more about the installation of the 3.14.1 kernel.
(Was it a fresh install?
Was it a update? Was there enough disk space during the update?)

FWIW: I think that iDRAC kvm can transmit arrow keys and ConTRoL.
I can't tell how, but it is very likely that such keys are supported.
That those keys have special meaning on the admin machine,
is something to cope / workaround with.
