mkinitrd didn't work....something causing probs with /dev/null in the
profile scripts and atd is not starting. Don't know if there is a
relationship there or not.
Still probing...not giving up.
Recap: updated nicely working FC3T2 today before I saw the udev hold.
Couldn't startx. Fixed udev, still can't startx. Something borked when
udev failed????
