In the meantime I updated my kernel to 2.6.32-trunk but still have the same problem. Here are the answers to your questions:

No, the file does not exist in the current initrd. I just had to boot twice with the same kernel/initrd, the first time I got that error, the second time it worked fine.

I am sure that I boot the right root filesystem, as I only have one linux root filesystem and only one /boot filesystem on that machine.

My /proc/cmdline: 

BOOT_IMAGE=//vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-686 root=UUID=20dcd9c8-46aa-423e-9e1a-0ac010d2e7af ro quiet

As I have a /boot filesystem, I don't see anything unusual in that line.

What else can I do to help to get rid of that problem?
