It seems udev is not installed all the way or has an error in the package.

Using sudo dpkg --configure -a should attempt to fix the problem.

If that should not work, find the udev package in /var/cache/apt/archives/udev... and use that .deb in dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/udev... that will for the install of udev and should solve the problem you are having.
