Barry Kauler ☛ udevd timeout fixed
This has been a headache for the last month or so. See a recent post:
"The mysterious behaviour of udevd"
https://bkhome.org/news/202507/the-mysterious-behaviour-of-udevd.html
When a udev rule calls a program, binary or script, if it takes too long, now set to 20 seconds, udevd will hang the bootup until the 20 second timeout, then kill the program.
