I was wrong there. Looking at ye olde /etc/init.d/hwclock(first)?.sh it infers that /etc/default/rcS is the file. Debian uses this to overide /etc/adjtime for its time-related boot scripts from my reading of them. > I think adjtime is intended for managing clock drift, though I see > from catting it, it does have "UTC" in it. Hmm ... This selects --localtime or --utc for hwclock if not specified, according to the man page. The other possible value is 'LOCAL'. hwclock --adjtime will do clock drift stuff based on this file. Base-config appears to alter rcS but not adjtime. >From this my interpretation is that as long as you aren't messing around with hwclock(outside of the boot scripts) only rcS needs to be right.
