check here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=352274
and here(in the issues section):
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=352274
It seems that there is an issue with newer versions of udev.
Booting with version 0.084 and the 2.6.15 kernel looks to trigger the issue.
They sat it doesn't break anything just makes booting ugly.
So it seems that you have two options.
Stick it out untill a fix is available
or
keep using 0.079-1 untill there is a fix available.
