Bug Description

After an update of my machine from 12.04 to 12.10 I recognized the following
the mountall daemon and the init process eat a lot of cpu. So the system is unresponsive.
When i type the following in the console
while true; do ps aux | grep mount; sleep 1; done
I see that the process
mount -t nfs -o rsize=8192,wsize=8192 192.168.100.100:/mnt/public /mnt/public
appears every few seconds.
But the share /mnt/public is already mounted at that time.
My second nfs share is not mounted at all.
When I kill the mountall daemon everything the system gets responsive again.
It is no problem to mount the second nfs share afterwards.

My ubuntu release is 12.10

The version of mountall installed is 2.42
The version of portmap is 6.0.0-1ubuntu2.2
The version of nfs-common is 1:1.2.6-3ubuntu2

Can you check whether this problem still occurs using the version of mountall in quantal-proposed? See bug #1059471 for details.

Thank you.

It worked two "boot" times now.
Hope it is fixed but I think so.
