Why is then there 10sec delay during boot? The backtrace is

Looking closer, it can't access init. This in particular box boots
directly the kernel without an initramfs so the kernel later mounts
/dev/sda1 and everything is good.  So that seems to be the reason…
My other machine with an initramfs does not show this problem.
