Sry. I haven't had the time yesterday to investigate this more. I just wanted to warn to prevent you moving the packages. Today before work I downgraded udev to 149 and to module-init-tools from core repo and this solved the booting issue for me. I was put into rescue shell because the filesystem had a mounting time from the future. We had this in the past in our initscripts due to an unwanted "&" somewhere. Checking the logs shows that kernel log is active and boot process goes further without any weird msg. It just doesn't print anything to the screen. After long tme waiting a login prompt comes up but no filesystem seems mounted. My / and /home are both ext4. I also have reiserfs for my chroot disc and /tmpfs for /tmp and nfs for storage. Maybe you have an idea how we can investigate it further when I will come home. -Andy
