It is either the kernel or the initramfs. Your dmesg might tell you more (possibly some misbehaving kernel module?). Also, what modules/hooks do you have in your initramfs?

Thanks Arno, Tom,
There are no non-default hooks on the desktops. They all have:
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems usbinput fsck"
On my 2 server boxes, I have dmraid in this order:
MODULES="dm_mod dm_mirror" HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata dmraid filesystems usbinput fsck"
I do note that fsck was added at some point in time, but that was a default and not something I added.
Looking at dmesg, I see the following delays > 2 sec:
[ 7.957888] EXT4-fs (sdc5): mounting ext3 file system using the ext4 subsystem [ 8.016583] EXT4-fs (sdc5): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) [ 10.236553] udevd[140]: starting version 185
No, you need logs much before that. Udev should be noted twice in dmesg: one is when initramfs is unpacked (with low PID ~ 40); and you posted another.

There is 19 sec for NVIDIA.

I don't know, but the delay I see before the ':: running early hooks (udev)' message does not seem to correlate to these entries in dmesg. Is dmesg logging even active before the ':: running early hooks (udev)'?
Yes, everything is in dmesg.log and kernel.log (unless you have reconfigured syslog). -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key: 0x164B5A6D Fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
