Package: udev
Version: 0.071-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

when installed, the timeout (udevd_timeout variable from
/etc/init.d/udev) is not set big enough to wait for creation of certain
devices (in particular /dev/hd* and ethernet card). This makes the
/etc/init.d/mountall.sh and /etc/init.d/networking scripts fail, thus
rendering the system locked.

when I boot into runlevel 1, wait for the devices to load and rerun the
above-mentioned scripts and then switch into runlevel 2, everything
works fine including graphical login etc. 

when I change the timeout to higher value (26 on my machine, but your
mileage may vary), the normal (i.e. runlevel 2) bootstrap processes OK.
