Thanks for the help! Solution was much simpler as I thought: checked another
CF-Card and now everything runs fine (and much faster).
I flashed to newboot and it's really great, thanks for that impressive update to
c-one! With the included SD-RAM test I just figured out, that my SD-RAM didn't
work correctly. Changed it too, and now even this is fixed.
