Correction etc:

If Suse hadn't amended the clock on shutdown c12am Saturday 15 May, that date would have been put on Gentoo's dirs when created above, I assume. For eg, booted from LiveCD just once, c8pm on Sunday, for a quick look - so why are Gentoo's dirs dated that day?

dates mickey mouse? (I think Suse is messing with my clock)
I assume you are talking about the april dates? they are correct, thats when the directories in the stage3 tarball were created. what makes u think suse has a problem?
Every time I start it up, the clock is out.
Tried a few settings, no change.
That is, it didn't stop being erratic - the amount it was regularly out by did change.
On closer inspection the Zone scheme is different to what we're used to (eg NZ not in Pacific).
Currently on Time Zone: Global - NZ which is reducing errors from hours to minutes.
I'm going to manually adjust this for now, and focus on getting Gentoo up instead.
Left on local time not UTC tho.
