Hi,

I (very) recently installed the "deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 10.0 _Sid_ - 
Unofficial powerpc NETINST 20180516-18:14]/ sid main" iso on my PowerPC G5 2,2. 
 Everything went pretty smoothly (except it could not find the Sid repository 
(but that's another story).  So, I updated the install using "deb 
http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/ unstable main".  OK that is the 
background - virtually all of it, a clean story.

Now, when I run htop, this is what I see:

The problem is - CPU #2 is maxed-out, doing systemd something - something to do 
with /lib/systemd/systemd --system --deserialize 27.  I do not think this is 
right.  It is using half of my CPU resources, doing nothing as far as I can 
tell.  Is there a fix for this?  Can I possibly install nosystemd and go back 
to when things were good?

Thanks,
Tom Grzybowski
