FWIW, on my Fedora 8 Dell Vostro 1000 notebook, ever since updating to kernel 2.6.23.15-137 I am getting frequent udev startup lockups on boot. Resetting and rebooting will get things past udev startup some of the time, so it doesn't always hang. I'd guess it hangs about half the time. Once past udev startup, everything works fine, no hangs. I haven't seen this on a half dozen other desktops/servers running Fedora 8. Aside from that, everything else works fine. The previous kernel was 2.6.23.14-115, so I suspect that if these were related, the changes were backported into the 2.6.23 stable tree in 2.6.23.15?
