   With recent kernels & udev + initscripts I started having warm boot 
problems with one of my desktops. Fully updated testing repo (3.6.2). 
Cold boot works fine.

   The boot console looks very similar to these:

   Today I switched that pc to systemd - and the problem has gone away.

   I cannot tell if it was udev timout bug - but booting with systemd 
did make the issue vanish.


   In case anyone else has this.
