Thanks for the reply. The whole execution log is posted at
http://pastebin.com/SQefWNQs

Seems to me that the reason of failure is the failure of

  statd+ start-stop-daemon --start --oknodo --quiet --exec /sbin/rpc.statd 
--
 + RET=1

 $ file /sbin/start-stop-daemon
 /sbin/start-stop-daemon: ELF 64-bit LSB executable

 $ ls -l /sbin/rpc.statd 
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 65776 2010-08-26 23:25 /sbin/rpc.statd*

Rings any bell? 

Thx
