Hey, Does XP show the date as incorrect? If you sync your time with a time source in XP then it wont show the time being skewed. If it's resetting everytime then you really need to change the battery on your motherboard. Perhaps you need to set the correct timezone and install ntpd and ntpdate to sync your time in Linux as well. Do you ever set the correct time on your system?
If you want to sync your time manually with ntpdate just do 'ntdate pool.ntp.org' or any other time source of your choice. This may not help you and your faulty bios time and checks but once you get booted you'll at least have the right time. Back to what you asked for, which is FAR from desirable...this is how to use tune2fs to disable time dependent checks on /dev/sda1 tune2fs -i 0d /dev/sda1 Here is the man page for tune2fs http://linux.die.net/man/8/tune2fs On Thu, Dec 9, 2010 at 7:41 PM, Biswa <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I am running on Ubuntu 9.1.
