Bug#801273: installation-reports: CPU burnin never stops



Package: installation-reports
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Chose the CPU burnin option of the installer, and chose 10 minutes runtime.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Let it run the full 10 minutes.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
cpuburnP6 continued running throughout the rest of the install in the background, not merely the timed 10 minutes.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected the timer to stop it when it was done.

Using the target's top command allowed me to kill the processes, which worked fine and did not disrupt the rest of the install.
