Scott-

I just can't seem to figure out why udev is causing all of these problems for you and others. Suffice it to say though that it really makes me uncomfortable.

I have udev and vzdev both installed on all my CentOS 5-based VPSs and not a hint of a problem yet. Now I don't have anything as advanced as a GNOME GUI image created from the repository yet, however, I can restart them, stop them, and run them without any problems whatsoever.

At this point I'm trying to determine what is different on my systems vs yours. If you leave in udev after creating a VPS:

1. Are there any files in /sys inside the VPS?

2. What is the contents of /proc/mounts inside the VPS?

I've done some reading about udev and my understanding is that in it's configuration within the VPS's it basically does nothing (or should do nothing). My supposition is that in your case (and everyone else's that doesn't work) it is trying to create devices and getting stuck after a conflict with the manually created vzdev devices. If we can find out why this is happening, perhaps we can stop this bad behavior of udev, and, thus, solve your problem.
