If you want to avoid dbus, then i recommend you to use pmount instead of
udisks/udisks2. I have had a system detecting physical devices without
dbus (using, as i said, vdev and pmount). RecentIy i uploaded an image
of gnuinos including both of them. Dbus also has been removed from the
dependencies of the network manager (simple-netaid instead of wicd) but
dbus is still present in the system due to gvfs :(

Cheers,

  Aitor.
