@Dave: I've modded udevd to display some internal details, but cannot now make the images I have fail to boot reliably. Currently working with @jamespage who has a machine that fails to boot most times.

I've tried to force more frequent failures by installing with lots of LVs, but that doesn't seem to help either on virtual h/w (kvm) or the limited physical h/w I have access to. I've even gone as far as forcing particular LVs to respond *extremely* slowly (multi-second response time), but that hasn't helped trigger the problem either).
