Hello All, I have a strange problem with my 8.1 box. After booting, the hard disk goes into a full-speed never-ending spin. 'ps waux' always shows pid 11 as taking 400% CPU utilization : /root # ps -up 11 USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TT STAT STARTED TIME COMMAND root 11 400.0 0.0 0 32 ?? RL 7:22PM 166:35.46 [idle] I have tried multiple tweaks to resolve this - all to no effect. The only thing that seems out of place is that polkitd seems to be missing. (I have no idea why this is the case). /etc/rc.conf states polkitd_enable="YES". This happens even in single-user mode, which I used to try to fix any filesystem errors with 'fsck -fy' : there were none. My system has only 2 partitions : ad8s2a (/) and ad8s2b (swap). Any pointers to what might the problem be ? Thanks in advance. Regards Manish Jain [1]invalid.pointer@gmail.com References 1. mailto:invalid.pointer@gmail.com
