I have a fresh install of LinuxMCE, installed using the most recent snapshot. The orbiter on the core loads fine, but I can't get it to work on either of 2 MDs. One MD is a foxconn nt-510, the other is a generic virtual machine in VMware. With both MDs, I get through the AV wizard, but every time I restart after that, when the big white letters come up on the screen, neither one will go past "done rebuilding nis cache". It just sits there, and after a few minutes the screen goes blank.
Also, while it's hanging there, there is a bunch of data being transmitted from the MD to the core. An excessive amount actually, in the last 45 minutes over 4 GB. The MD is still responive, ctrl+alt+F1 brings up another virtual terminal, so I ssh'd in to look at what was running. I pasted that here:
