[mythtv-users] mythdora: udev hang following tv card hardware change

hi.
i have a MythDora box with a PVR-150 Card & Hauppauge bttv card...
i bought a new PVR-150 card and exchanged it for the bttv card.... i was
hoping that my os would be able to deal with hardware change and i had left
the bttv card unconfigured under MythTV.
but, after carrying out the hardware swap (into the same PCI slot), i
observe udev hanging (@ 'starting udev' - it appears to be a complete lock
up)
i have enabled udev logging as i am still able to get to a recovery command
line, (a grub option with a different linux kernel than the one used on my
main MythDora system)
it seems to hang at this line: "udevd[459]udev_event_run: seq 680 forked,
pid [1415], 'add' 'i2c-adapter' 0 secs "
now my assumption are that udev is still trying to 'create' the bttv device.
i have removed the bttv alias from modprobe.conf
is it possible to reconfigure udev without reinstalling?
i have exhausted my usual channels of inquiry looking for a fix, and so i am
asking here, before i take the drastic & laborious action of a system
reinstall, so any suggestions?
thanks,
