The first ~170kb of /dev/sda got blown away with what seems to be a logging output by Powertop, when I was playing with the tuneables. (Luckily the first partition starts later :-)) Why is that I don't know, but maybe when turning on the SATA knobs something goes wrong. I'm afraid to try again, but I accept rather higher power use than data loss again :-/ Sorry for the confusion...
