So i did a little bit of research and it cleared out that my last post is right.

Its a regression of the patch described here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/9/267

This patch was reverted here:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/intrepid-changes/2008-October/009184.html

Beside the revert messages, I couldnt find any reason for the revert.

Anyhow, I took the latest kernel source 2.6.28-6 (which, btw, dont boot either) and patched it with the patch from above. After the build and install the system boots as expected.

I think we need the kernel-team to get in touch with this but I dont know how. any help to get this fix back would be really appreciated.
