Failed to start up immediately after a virgin install of 32-bit Server
(Minimal Virtual Install option) 10.04 LTS on VMWare ESXi 4.1.  Get the
segfault after the udevd failure line, then a revert to busybox.

Changing VMWare's identified OS from Ubuntu 32-bit to any other value does not 
resolve issue.
Changing VMWare's CPU/MMU Virtualization value from Automatic to "Use Intel 
VT-x/AMD-V" does not resolve issue.
The only way to boot the VM is to turn Acceleration off.

Once booted, I reverted back to the earlier known good kernel, 2.6.34.24:
$ apt-get install linux-image-2.6.32-24-virtual
$ echo "linux-image-2.6.32-33-virtual hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections  # 
stock kernel on distro
$ echo "linux-image-2.6.32-41-virtual hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections  # 
current dist-upgrade target for this distro

Then I turned Acceleration back on and rebooted.  Works.  W00t!

$ uname
Linux myboxname 2.6.32-24-generic-pae #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 15:30:27 UTC
