libvirt users - Nov 2014 - Unable to start container after OS upgrade

I upgraded my container from CentOS 6.4 to CentOS 6.5. Everything looks good
after upgrade until reboot. When rebooted to container I'm getting the
following errors.. Any help would be greatly appreciated

You don't want to have  udevd running in any container. The /dev filesystem
for a container is pre-populated by libvirt and udev will not have permission
to create any further device nodes. So just disable udev init script.

I have uninstalled udev prior to reboot. Still lxc container is not coming up
after reboot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
