Title: [SOLVED] noutc boot code doesn't work?
Post by: lumosy on November 22, 2011, 10:19:28 PM

I added the  `noutc` boot code to the `kernel` line in /mnt/sda1/boot/grub/menu.lst:

Code: [Select]

default 0
timeout 10
title tinycore
kernel /boot/vmlinuz quiet noutc
initrd /boot/tinycore.gz

Then, rebooted, verifying that the boot code is still there.

However, when I check whether the system treats BIOS time as local, not UTC, I am surprised to see that it still thinks it's UTC:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ hwclock; date
Tue Nov 22 22:12:58 2011  0.000000 seconds
Tue Nov 22 22:12:58 UTC 2011
What am I missing?

Answering myself: I was missing an additional boot code:

Code: [Select]

kernel /boot/vmlinuz quiet noutc tz=EST-5DST,M3.2.0,M11.1.0/2
All is well now. :)
