Yes, otherwise we e.g. end up with a filesystem that was modified in 1970 and e2fsck will complain on the next boot. Since I filed this bug, someone suggested that a tool other than ntp might be better since it's smaller. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the name right now. I'm CCing -boot so other people can comment, but unless there are great ideas, I'm still interesting in having an ntp udeb. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
