udev "bind mounts" /dev/ to /.dev/. Check your /dev/; I bet there's
little if anything there. Didn't udev say "you should restart your
computer at the earliest possible convenience, and shouldn't expect
stuff to work if you enable udev without doing so"? It used to do
that.
Maybe it is a problem with wajig? debconf is capable of showing
messages in a variety of ways, including both gtk and text messages
and menus. If it can't use any interactive display (for example if I
"ssh cyberia sudo aptitude upgrade"), then it will send an email to
root (IIRC). Did you get an email?
Does rebooting fix the problem?
