I only had *one* root shell open.

The only special thing is, that I entered "reboot" into this shell and 
that I've updated my system before doing so. The update included a 
systemd update and a new kernel.

Today, I tried to reproduce the problem but I had no luck...

I've read on the net that a zero sized ".bash_history" may be a sign 
that someone intruded into that system but as this system is behind a 
firewall and is just used as pure client (no ports accessible from the 
outside) and I regularly add all system updates, I don't really think 
that this can be possible...
