One question is whether or not to do it by default. Doing it default will hurt the CD-ROM only (no network) installs.

Running ntpdate is a must for them and I hope to add this as an option to clock setup as some point. Yes, I also think that clock-setup should do that, as well as installing ntpdate in /target, probably.. One question is whether or not to do it by default. A trick we could use is comparing the clock to the timestamps in Release files that d-i has already downloaded. If it's earlier than them, then the system clearly has issues, and ntpdate could be run by default. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature
