Hi,

I've found a little problem in the implementation of the NTP boot script.
If there is a network problem during the boot process, the computer can't boot and stop at the ntp script. If the ntp server isn't rechable, or if the name resolution can't be done, this is the same.

I've look at the RH boot scripts, they first try to ntpdate, if it work, they start ntpd daemon. Perhaps we should do something similar to test if the ntp server is reachable before trying to start the daemon.
