By the way, I think Robert has a script *somewhere* what runs ntpdate at boot. But I do not remember where it is. I checked /opt/scripts/ on my BBB, but I'm running Jessie, and could not find such a script. But it could also be either a sysv init script, or an rc.d startup script, and potentially even a a cron job( unlikely ).
