FC5: Problem after May 4 Updates Applied - Locks after Starting UDEV

Everything with FC5 has been working great until I applied today's updates (refer to yum log below).  After installing the updates, I let the system reboot.  The last thing I see when booting up is "Starting udev", then I get a black XWindows screen with just the cursor.  The cursor moves with the mouse, and I let it sit there for 30 minutes hoping that Fedora would eventually boot up.  Nothing.  Finally, I hit <Ctrl><Alt><Backspace> to kill XWindows, it then takes me back to the system console screen and continues to boot up, and finally presents the Fedora XWindows Login screen.  This happens every time I reboot.

Any ideas?

It's not a laptop, so it's not the old PCMCIA package problem.  What else?  Please help.
