You can try an older kernel, there's a chance it's initrd isn't tainted with a set of rules that has watch in it; you'll then be able to boot in and fix it. Alternatively you can get in to your system via chrooting. That's a bit of console work though, and really depends on how you set things

Odd, you shouldn't have a problem like grep: /lib/udev/devices/ppp: No such device or address; that seems to indicate some kind of storage corruption if I remember correctly. Though it may just be udev spamming you. -- [jaunty] doesn't boot anymore after udev upgrade
