@Adam: Not quite yet, but will work on that when I get a chance tomorrow if possible. I'm intrigued by your setup though as I have a thinkpad + kvm but only see the problem very infrequently (and I've tried setting up images as you specify). How exactly are you invoking kvm? To clarify, are you using the server image?

@Serge: what was your storage configuration when you saw the problem without LVs? I think I've seen the problem a couple of times simply by providing 2 extra raw disks to the system but at that point my udevd debug wasn't helpful. I have tried modifying udevd to continue processing events but it then hangs. I really need to be able to recreate the problem more reliably on a system I've got control over before fathoming this one out.
