Here. It seems to leak directories in /tmp/ still (they are not empty because they contain a subdirectory called ".udev"). I don't know what the syslogd problem is, I get it when trying to install sysklogd as well. Also, the INTERFACE_NEW=eth1 thing is confusing, I have an eth1 interface but it is not up. The install doesn't fail, which is good, but as I said when I installed the stable version and then removed it, after that the unstable version began installing successfully as well, so I think whatever caused my problem is gone. Since you said it was a deadlock thing, I also tried doing the installation at different CPU speeds, still no failure... Also, I made sure that udevd is running. Hope this helps.
