Hello,

today I installed linux (RH 6.1) on an alcor system (AlphaStation 600
5/333). Mostly it works right except for system date. It seems that linux
takes wrong UNIX epoch from SRM. date shows some date in 2068, which is
exactly one epoch (2**31 secs) too late.

I wouldn't like to mess with SRM date settings for a while, since for now
this machine has to be dual-boot and I'd like to have correct time under
Digital Unix.

I wonder though, how would one set the epoch to Linux kernel.

BTW, if I run ntpdate, it corrects clock by some seconds, so it seems that
it doesn't know about epoch.

Some ideas?

Regards,
  Mkx
