As it seems this has been a one time thing; I restartet the box again this
morning and now /etc/log/boot.log looks fine:
the part were the error of above was shown ...
Mounting filesystems: [ OK ]
Starting acpi daemon: [ OK ]
Starting HAL daemon: [ OK ]
Retrigger failed udev events [ OK ]
Starting kdump: [ OK ]
Starting radvd: [ OK ]
Starting sshd: [ OK ]
