Maybe it's not udev but the next thing after udev runs. Have you tried booting without "rhgb quiet"? More messages might show up. I assume that you are still running the original kernel, and not the problematic 2107 kernel.
I seem to remember that "rhgb quiet" is already in the kernel line... so yes. Also, i just downloaded the latest DVD image and installed that - so what ever kernel that installed by default. Hmmm...
