i'm using the 2.2r0 CDs to install my debian box and i notice one thing. the dates of some files and directories are set hours ahead of my cmos time. files affected are the dynamically created ones like linked files in "/dev", some files in "/var" and "/usr", and "/proc" itself. poking around i saw "/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh" which is supposed to set my system clock from the hardware or cmos clock. i noticed that it is only run for runlevels S, 6, and 5 so i corrected this and set it to run for all runlevels S and K. this is according to suggestions from hwclock(8) to have system time updated by the hardware clock. is there a bug with 2.2r0 at the start regarding system time or is this somekind of fluke i'm seeing? -- "Let the source be with you." -- Tux
