Hi guys, There was a regression in udev-168, I have backported two patches to fix the problem: On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 1:47 PM, Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no> wrote:

There is currently a problem with the latest udev in that it does not settle properly (i.e., it does not wait for dirvers to be loaded before continuing). This most noticeable affects people using usb drives or kernels without devtmpfs.
Please try: <http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~teg/udev-168-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz> to see if the problem is solved for you, and report back at <https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/24288>. (assuming you are on x86_64, I'll do i686 tonight).
Hector just reported back that udev-168-2 solves the problem. Can I ask someone to push it to testing? You'll find the packages in my staging directory on gerolde. Cheers, Tom
