I've redone the test, it is always the same. It begin to boot and the
stops displaying anything while there is still some activity. I didnt
manage to reach my box via the network: whine I can ping it, ssh is not
working.

The latest displayed message are:
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: eth0: network connection up using
port A
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: speed: 100
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: autonegotiation: yes
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: duplex mode: full
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: flowctrl: symmetric

Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: scatter-gather: enabled
Feb 5 14:30:56 tangerine-64 kernel: Capability LSM initialized

After 20 minutes or so, I decided to press the reset button :-/

I've done some tests for the wacom tablet but the file has only one
line and is commented out.

#BUS="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}="056a", SYSFS{idProduct}="0011", NAME="%k",
SYMLINK="input/tablet"

But the way, if I tried to enable this line, it creates first the right
symlink but it is overwritten later with every device in /dev/inout/ to
finally stay with the latest found.

To be able to boot, I've started the system on a live CD and the
download the previous debian package fro udev (0.050-6) from
snapshot.debian.net. I've extracted the package and copied the files by
hand on the "damaged" system. Then I was able to boot.

I'm using xfs filesystems on lvm over a software raid1.
