The process is by booting following: The system reads the hwclock and take a look at /etc/sysconfig/clock for hwclock state. Is it UTC sets the hwclock time to kernel time. Is it localtime calculates the UTC from hwclock time using the time zone given in /etc/localtime and sets the so calculated UTC to the kernel time.
And what is the mkinitrd call for? During boot, you already know that hwclock is in localtime (this is written in /etc/sysconfig/clock) and /etc/localtime was set by YaST after changing the time zone. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
