Package: fake-hwclock Version: 0.1 Severity: normal Hi,
currently fake-hwclock loads the hwclock state in initrd. Unfortunately not all our systems that need fake-hwlock boot using an initrd - for instance our octeon mips machines don't. The usual hwclock script runs in S, from /etc/rcS.d/S05hwclockfirst in our case. It would probably make sense and it's AFAICS sufficient to do the fake-hwclock at the same time, no need to do it in the initramfs. I have changed our init script to include the following: | # Default-Start: S | # X-Start-Before: checkroot [taken from S05hwclockfirst] and | start) | /bin/fake-hwclock load | ;; | status) | echo "We think it's currently `date -u`." | ;; Also, as a side node, the init script probably should not use full paths, and instead should set and export PATH at the top.
