Andreas Pokorny, the next step is to fully commit bisect from kernel 3.19 to 4.3 in order to identify the last good kernel commit, followed immediately by the first bad one. This will allow for a more expedited analysis of the root cause of your issue. Could you please do this following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection ?
Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit bisecting. After the offending commit (not kernel version) has been identified, then please mark this report Status Confirmed. Thank you for your understanding.

I cannot use a newer kernel, I tried various 4.3 to 4.4 versions, all show a similar symptom. The newer kernels do not seem to execute the init process, at least there are no traces of systemd in the first few minutes. Then after about 8 minutes systemd messages appear. Before that the last kernel trace I can see is from btrfs. I could only makee screenshots of those startup failures. --- ApportVersion: 2.20-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-11-08 (834 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Alpha amd64 (20131108) Package: linux (not installed) SystemImageInfo: current build number: 0 device name: channel: daily last update: 2015-07-01 20:58:02 Tags: xenial Uname: Linux 3.19.0-999-generic x86_64 UnreportableReason: The running kernel is not an Ubuntu kernel UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adb adm audio autopilot cdrom dip games libvirtd lpadmin plugdev sambashare saned sbuild scanner sudo tracing video voice _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1548083/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
