The error happened too early during boot - so that the data didn't get into the log files (disks were mounted in read-only mode). Anyway, the problem does not appear anymore. I just restarted the system several times (including complete power-down / power-up cycle), to be sure. I don't know what the reason was, but it seem to be fixed now!
