I have a brand new installed 2008.1. Two users ( root and me). rpc.mountd
is taking 100% of cpu immediately when it starts up and continues that way
forever. sshd also sometimes starts up and grabs 100% of cpu as well.
Totally weird behaviour.
Any clues as to what could be going wrong?

This is rather old, but see if anything in
http://mailman.linuxchix.org/piperma...er/020594.html
fixes the problem.

I am now conviced it is a bad computer.
md5sum on a file gives different answers each time it is run.
gkrellm segfaults after a while. Other commands segfault.
Time to return the computer and get another one.
