This problem - udev not creating sd* nodes - appears for me with arbitrary 
SCSI / SATA drivers if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is set, but that's been 
the case under 2.6.32 too, not sure since which kernel version exactly. 
The OP is claiming, that rc1 was fine, is he sure his .config was the same 
in both cases?

Thanks
