Hi Guys
Updated my version of Udev to the patched version using the
instructions, now when I boot on to the latest kernel I get:
Starting Udev:
And then nothing, udev doesnt start with a newer kernel (1743),
however it still works fine with the older kernel (1719). Any ideas of
that else I can try to help debug?

This could be udevd running in parallel and doing stuff..
Could you
# rpmbuild --rebuild
ftp://people.redhat.com/harald/udev/udev-075-5.src.rpm
install the rpm and reboot?
This udev version has a patch, which waits until udevd has finished
replaying the uevents. So we can debug it a little better.
