udev taking 3 minutes usually means you have a kernel driver bug,
udev doesn't have a sleep for 3 minutes, it loads drivers and usually
waits for them to finish. Since someone decided to merge a stupid
floppy PNP match I've seen a lot of floppyless machines hit a 30sec
udev delay. so many that we disabled the pnp floppy on Fedora.
