Things are a bit difficult when you cannot get more information. I guess, that the system stops working in boot.udev, which comes after boot.localfs at least on my system. What you can do, is boot the system with init=/bin/sh then run the different boot scripts in /etc/init.d, e.g. run /etc/init.d/boot.localfs start /etc/init.d/boot.udev start and see if it crashes there. Maybe even something like echo "foobar" > /dev/shm/foobar instead of the boot.udev kills the machine, then it would be a shm problem... Sorry, I have no idea what the cause is, and can only give some hints about how to do a bit of debugging.
