version: "Version SVN-20110216" section: "7.4. Configuring the setclock Script"
The test and explanation in para 3, "If you cannot remember ...", is perhaps incomplete. The test seems to be inconclusive if the user is in a GMT(+-0) timezone (e.g. UK) when no daylight savings time is in operation (e.g. UK in 'winter' time): for, then localtime is same as utc. Adding a caveat on this would perhaps be deemed to take the page into too much detail; and besides, for such time-related stuff I'd guess ~newbie-folks often would need &/or want to dig a bit further than the book's level of detail anyway. Otoh, the page does try to go into some detail; in which case it may be worthwhile to try to make it more complete. rgds, akh -- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
