Hello,
someone found out that in Linux adjtime()'s correction is limited to

This module don't works as expected. It disables the keyboard and the PS/2

Not bad, but less than I'd expect. Measuring single partitions, some show

Sure I do.
When ext2 mounts, it sets the soft blocksize to that then, I would expect
