I also had the same problem, with mythTV. I had constant hard disc
activity for nearly 3 days, before I checked to see what was causing it.

iotop showed mythtv-backend was the culprit, and I killed that process.
The disc activity stopped.

I use Ubuntu 8.10

Linux ood 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:28:32 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux

Be very careful about using mythTV at the moment, it could destroy your
hard drive.

Cheers,
Alan.
