Unfortunately, it isn't going to be as simple as switching away from udev. This move is going to move all software from /bin, /sbin and /lib to /usr/bin and /usr/lib. The end result is going to be that regardless of whether you are using mdev or udev you will have to use an initramfs if /usr is on a separate partition.
