Try updating to a new version of MPICH. MPD is quite old and hasn't been supported for some time. The newer versions use Hydra which doesn't require booting.

    You can always install the latest version yourself from source or use some of the prebuilt binaries that are available at the bottom of the http://www.mpich.org/downloads page. – Wesley Bland Jan 24 '14 at 19:21
