You are welcome. :) So, your original idea of using "hwclock --set --date --localtime" seems to be the best way. Alternatively, you might try replaying the question-answer sequence regarding RTC at install time. ~$ dpkg -S /sbin/hwclock util-linux: /sbin/hwclock Perhaps "dpkg-reconfigure util-linux" might cause the same install-time question be asked again (presumably along with other questions).
