What is portmap daemon?
Is it has something to do with NFS?
How can I remove it?

Another question is how can I remove fsck checking (I want to boot to Xwindows as fast as I can) ?

You might need the full path to stop portmap like this (you must be root):

/etc/init.d/portmap stop

If this is hard drive installed and you don't want it started then:
cd /etc/rc0.d then delete the link rm S10portmap
