No backup from the /lib/  :S

>From another system i packaged the lib dir into a tar.gz, making sure that
the used kernel on the crashed box is the same on the box i used
(/lib/modules/)

Boot rescue cd, start network, wget the created tar.gz to /mnt/sysimage/tmp
unpack
copy unpacked files to /mnt/sysimage/lib
and reboot.

Testing it now on a vmware created box to see if it works. (i think it works
anyway this way).

So nobody seems to think about this way? lol fun :)
