update to 2.6.24.4-64: booting hangs at "udev"

After updating the kernel to 2.6.24.4-64, booting my laptop hangs at udev. Don't know what could it be... any idea?


My machine:

IBM Thinkpad T42. Pentiun M 1.7G. Cisco 11b wifi card. Intel Gigabit Ethernet, Radeon 7500, nothing more.

Thanks

Reboot and when the grub splash screen come up hit any key to enter the grub menu
Hit the E key for EDIT MODE
Scroll down to the line that starts kernel=
Hit A to append, at the end of the line, remove the quiet option
Then boot and post what is outputed on the screen while it hangs

It could be a few things, from hardware to the vt being switched to just missing that it's the graphics driver and it appears to hang
