After consulting with Soekris Europe I sent the board back to them. Package got stuck in danish customs for quite some time for reasons I still don't understand, but eventually this was solved and the package got to it's destination. The reply fron Soekris Europe was that they had not found any fault on my board, but since I had throughly tested it they would replace it with a new board anyway. Couple of days later I have the new board and it just works fine. So I still have no explanation on what happened, but my Soekris is back doing it's job....
