Sorry, this was a wrong and stupid conclusion. Service messages always stopped at alsa and another time when I was playing with alsa 'ls /dev/snd' stopped console. But the real problem seems to be autofs. It is configured for my ide zip drive. Accidently at boot time it always tries to access zip drive when alsa is loading... Now I looked at kernel messages - I know, a little bit to late. So, real bug (could be;-): autofs tries to mount /dev/hdc4, but when zip disc is not present, devfsd fails with creation of /dev entry. After this 'ls /dev/...' fails.
