OK, the problem is to do with serial ports, ttyS*. Under UML these can be
mapped to pty's on the host and it takes a while for kudzu to work through
the resulting devices entries.
My quick kludge is to simply add an rc script that deletes the serial ports
before kudzu runs, but is there a better way of configuring udev so it doesn't
create them in the first place?
#!/bin/sh
#
# STOP_TTY - delete serial ports
#
# chkconfig: 345 04 99
# description: Delete serial ports
#
