Sorry about the delay on this. My preference, I think, is simply to change parted to avoid calling 'udevadm settle' when in a chroot. The fact that it calls 'udevadm settle' is an Ubuntu patch for the benefit of our installer in the first place, and we never rely on calling it in a chroot. I'd be more comfortable with doing this than with going round chasing up everything that might call parted, or with trying to persuade udev upstream to maintain compatibility (which I sort of doubt they're going to care much about).

I'll get to this as soon as possible.
