Just a quick note from a DVD test I do at the moment. The slow udevadm settle problem do not show up with a DVD build, where the udev-udeb package is not on the DVD. Because of this the udev-udeb package is not upgraded within d-i, and the installation is not slowed down like it is when I do PXE installations.
This make me suspect the problem is caused by the upgrade of udev-udeb. Perhaps the udev daemons is not restarted during upgrades, and the daemon and udevsettle binary end up using different protocols?
