Hi Punky, Thierry,
Thanks very much for that suggestion. Tell me, is there any downside to adding
that boot parameter? is it likely to cause me other issues?
Many thanks,
Rob

Hi,
I have put in /boot/grub/menu.lst
kernel /vmlinuz root=LABEL=ROOT_FS console=ttyS0,38400n8 nomfgpt
and in /etc/crontab
15 * * * * root /usr/sbin/ntpdate 0.fr.pool.ntp.org >> /dev/null 2>&1
This solve the issue.

Hello Guys,
I've got some pretty serious clock drift on all the ALIX 3d2 which we've
got. Seems that after even just a short period of running the time on the
systems is quite out of sync with the real time.
Is this a common issue? We've had it for a long time but I've only
recently sat down and tried to find a solution to the problem. Is this
hardware related? or something software related?
Appreciate any advice you can offer.
Rob
I've experienced the same issue on the ALIX 2d2 boards here. I've been
able to greatly reduce the drift by installing the adjtimex package.
Hope this helps for you as well.
Regards
