I am use to old hardware (i486DX) having problems keeping time on the hardware clock. But isn't the system clock a separate thing? I am losing about 4 min on the system clock for every 10 minutes of real time. I've googled around for clock drift information. What I found suggests that a system under heavy load with the 2.6.x kernel on certain hardware might show this symptom. I've yet to try it, but I've read that adding "clock=pit noapic nolapic" to the boot parameters should fix it.
Is this something that will affect an LFS build? I don't like the idea of finding out towards the end that it will. That is my main concern. Should I ignore the clock issue? Is this something I should concern myself about? Any advice would be welcome.
