> * set up venti manually after the install, and after I've set the timezone
Sorry if I'am being a pedant, but its not the timezone - that is an offset that effects how dates and times are printed, plan9 like Unix always uses UTC for all time/date stamps. The problem is the time in the RTC chip was wrong. there is a recuring problem that Windows sets the RTC to localtime whereas Unix expects it to be UTC. There is an option to timesync to inform it if you want to continue using localtime on your RTC (because you want to dual boot with windows). -Steve
