boot-failure

I have a Thinkpad X230. After a boot it hangs with checking battery state [OK]. A second boot is most times successful.

What I have seen in other posts doesn't fit to my problem, because

My graphics card is Intel 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics controller (not nvidia)
It happens not always
I have a fresh installed 12.10 with the latest updates (no upgrade)

Does anyone experience the same issues or has a solution?
