this vga=6 gives a smaller font but it is not good readable. 
However, I coudln't see something that looks like a harddrive.
Then I tried to look at the booting process of a LiveCD and there 
I found an SIS IDE Controler. My kernel had per default VIA82CXXX 
chipset support enabled. I turned that off and SiS5513 chipset 
support on. BINGO!  The system was bootable with the new kernel 
and I could login!

Thank you all! I never would have solved this problem without your 
help!
