I saw kudzu behaving like this when installing rc1 (+ the AFS-related selinux changes in %post) on a Dell Precision 380. What it detected as new was at least the chipset (wonder what kudzu has to configure for that anyway) and the onboard sound. I think there was a third device, but I don't remember. I won't be able to do another test installation before the weekend. My system didn't freeze though, whether or not I allowed kudzu to "configure the new hardware". I also successfully installed the same on a Dell Poweredge 2850 (with PERC4 RAID) and a custom test system with an intel 925X desktop board. These have no console though, so I don't know how kudzu behaved during 1st boot. We usually turn it off in %post anyway... But if it's considered important, and the 4.2 release can wait until next week, I'll check. I guess there really is some mismatch between what's detected during installation and during the first reboot. This may or may not be a showstopper.
