I think the first thing you have to do is "find the cause Henk". :-) Sorry
too much Star Wars on the brain.
Anyway, a few questions/comments.
1. On the first boot, was the system powered off?
2. On the reboot, did you simply reboot via the system menu or did you
shutdown and power cycle the system?
3. On the first boot, save /var/log/dmesg someplace and reboot. Then
compare the /var/log/dmesg file created at the second boot.
