Core126 upgrade killed a machine: boot freezes after udevd start.
Experimenting with fresh (flash) installation image (and new CF card)
gave same result.
Up to and including core125 it works like charm (also tested with a
fresh image).
This is a bit difficult to debug: the last message displayed is
"Starting udev daemon... [ OK ]"
After that even keyboard is dead (caps lock doesn't work, nor alt-ctrl-del).
And as this happens before disks are mounted, there's no log to read.
This is a rather old machine, VIA C3 CPU, 512MB RAM, booting of CF card,
but there's nothing obviously wrong with the hardware, and as noted it
worked just fine up to and including core125.
I could leave it running core125, but a firewall that can't be upgraded
is not a workable long-term proposition.
Any suggestions as to how I could try to track the problem down?
