This is top output. Nothing interesting.

And now the problem:

ntfs -o defaults /dev/sda1 /media/winnt

This is infinite process. One die and new one is created.

This how to stop it. After this high CPU and DISK
utilization are off.
--------------
menv@hedgehog-book:~$ sudo mount /media/winnt
Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Operation not permitted
The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and
shutdown Windows
properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount
option, or
mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile'
mount option.
For example type on the command line:

            mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sda1
/media/winnt

menv@hedgehog-book:~$ sudo mount -o ro /media/winnt
menv@hedgehog-book:~$ sudo umount /media/winnt
-------------

The second partition (NTFS, but not with hibernated winxp)
is mounted normally during boot process.
