Subject: test12 + initrd = swapper at 99.8% CPU time
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2000 15:09:18 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A38019E.925D809B@cheek.com> (raw)

hi all,

i'm using test12 to perform a clean linux install.  as soon as i get to
a command prompt, ps axufw shows swapper at 99.8% CPU usage.  this
didn't repro with test11, and doesn't repro if i don't use an initrd.

my load avg stays above 1 even if nothing [a couple gettys and a shell]
is running.

what can i do to debug this?  any ideas?

thanks!

joe
