[Bug 328892] Re: MD/LVM boot broken

I managed to boot with a 2.6.24 kernel -- both 2.6.27 and 2.6.28
exhibited the same problem.  (Well, the 2.6.27 wasn't exactly the same).

However, in 2.6.24, my udevd eats up 80% of my CPU and makes my hard
disk churn!

Looking through my ps -ax, it may be the "/lib/udev/watershed sh -c
/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y" that is causing udevd to go
crazy.  If I kill the "lvm" process, another one gets immediately
restarted.

My version numbers are the same as above except for:

initramfs-tools: 0.92bubuntu21
mdadm: 2.6.7.1-1ubuntu7

kernel that booted:  2.6.24-21-generic
kernel that didn't boot: 2.6.28-8.24
