Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal
-- Package-specific info:
Boot method: network (upslug2)
Image version: Unofficial nslu2 image (stock lenny image plus onboard ethernet
microcode), http://www.slug-firmware.net/d-dls.php
Date: <Date and time of the install>
Machine: Linksys NSLU2
Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>

Overall install: [O]
Comments/Problems:
Timezone setup was fine, but the system RTC does not appear to be running,
so attempts to write to the hardware clock (which require an RTC poll)
failed, causing a brief (but properly detected by the installer) hang.
Installed files were timestamped correctly, but on post-install reboot the
clock was wrong (also if the clock isn't running the hwclock access on boot
will stall, taking hours for the first boot, but I'd disabled that before
the reboot.)
I let tasksel proceed with the default "Standard system" task, which was
a mistake -- it took over an hour to install those packages, most of which
I then had to remove manually.

The fix for hwclock you mentioned is in git now:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-linux-ng/util-linux-ng.git;a=commitdiff;h=982a4a5d98c7034004ec04bff7faea6e1dfcf131
so I will close this bug report. #494817 is the bug to track the
issue in util-linux.
Thanks again for your report.
