you neglected to provide `emerge info` like you were supposed to so i'm going to assume you're using baselayout-1.11.5 ...
looks like the issue is that start_critical_service() in /sbin/rc doesnt source /etc/conf.d/${x} after it sources /etc/init.d/${x}
simple fix, i'll test it before adding to cvs

Thanks! Sorry but that still doesn't solve the problem of clock starting up before localmount. clocks depend --> need localmount still ignored. I'm describing bug# 69987 that you marked as a dup of this bug without reading it. i did read Bug 69987 the problem was that you described two different bugs there ... i cant mark it a dupe of two bugs so i chose this one since it was the first bug you described :P Sorry to be annoying but I checked out the bug, fix has been applied already: CRITICAL_SERVICES="checkroot clock hostname modules checkfs localmount" I'll check out the next version when it comes out as I have a fix for my problem, thanks. vapier, Full understanding has finally dawned on me, I really need to start getting more sleep. I was playing around the the order of the critical services and got it to work as I originally wanted but after looking at the other critical services scripts realize why they should be started in that order. So I guess removing the /etc/localtime symlink and just copying over the actual zoneinfo file is the best fix. My only concern would be all the other people with /usr on a separate partition will be having the same problem when using localtime without copying over the file. What to do about that? Should definitely at least consider changing the gentoo install docs... Thanks. *** Bug 70107 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I don't think that copying the /usr/share/zoneinfo/{file} to /etc/localtime is the correct way to fix this. /etc/init.rd/clock should honour the "need localtime"
I don't think that this bug has been fixed!
I have /usr as a seperate partition and I still get the clock problem even with the patch.
use baselayout-1.11.6+ I'm using latest baselayout, 1.11.6-r1. Now everytime I reboot my clock drifts of about one hour and twenty minutes back. Unless I don't have just invented a time machine, I think it's a bug. As a time riference, up until clock was "UTC" in /etc/rc.conf everything went ok. Then it has moved to /etc/conf.d/clock and it's a disaster. In both location it is still set to "UTC". The problem is, is it related to this bug, or is it a new one and I have to file it? what does it say at boot ? setting to UTC or Local Time ? it says to UTC ok, so is this perhaps because of CLOCK_SYSTOHC being set to no by default ? (the default was yes before) yes, i noticed that already ~ a week ago, so I set it on "yes" here. i guess there is something in /etc/init.d/clock that has changed from before. (odd) something in this bug makes it hit my spam filters Actually, i've resolved this by putting CLOCK="localtime" instead of CLOCK="loacl" in my /etc/rc.conf.
And now it works.
I think it is because of:
if is_uml_sys
then
TBLURB="UML"
return 0
elif grep -q ' cobd$' /proc/devices
then
TBLURB="coLinux"
return 0
elif [ "${CLOCK}" = "UTC" ]
then
myopts="--utc"
TBLURB="UTC"
else
myopts="--localtime"
TBLURB="Local Time"
fi
it seems to check for value localtime, and not local.

I have the opposite problem. I had CLOCK="local" in /etc/rc.conf (as per the Gentoo installation instructions circa 2003), but recently my clock has been setting itself as UTC. I've just discovered the /etc/conf.d/clock file, which appears to override the /etc/rc.conf setting; I assume this was added in a recent update to baselayout. Is rc.conf now deprecated? the CLOCK is not set in /etc/rc.conf anymore with 1.11.x I use just UTC (in /etc/conf.d/clock), and before everything went ok, while now it drifts a couple of hours every reboot. Should I file a new bug, then? This may have to do with the switch from local to UTC Try to remove your /etc/adjtime, set your time (with date or ntpdate) and then reboot. Thanks, Georg! This seems to solve the issue. Shouldn't the ebuild store the actual time, rm /etc/adjtime and create it again? Just a though, anyway. |
