Since you still have a bootable operating system, you may try the hint
at <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=626450#36>.
After taking a second look at Sven's link after lunch I discovered
similar hints there as well. These hints helped to some degree - now the
boot works again but when the xserver starts something breaks (probably
related to the propietary NVidia driver).
C) How can I prevent getting unstable packages into my system in the
future?
Don't add sid to your sources.list. :) And if you do: use pinning or set
your default distribution in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90local (man apt.conf,
Default-Release).

That's good to know, thanks. :-)
Is there an easy way to remove all unstable packages? Otherwise I don't
worry too much about the xserver issue and reinstall.
Many thanks for the help.
