Have you found a solution yet? I have a similar problem and I think the problem is the programs0-mount script.
Try to copy the files into another directory, for example /drive0/appl/empacman, adapt your empacman start script and remove the mountscript from /etc/preinit.d.
Hope this work. In my case it does.
