Hello! I've made a custom bootable CDROM based on 6.0-RELEASE using the following command line (shamelessly stolen from /usr/src/release/i386/mkisoimages.sh): mkisofs -b boot/cdboot -no-emul-boot -r -J -o cd.iso cd I've made the following tweaks in system's rc.conf: root_rw_mount="NO" ; update_motd="NO" entropy_file="NO" ; entropy_dir="NO" and in fstab: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/acd0 / cd9660 ro 0 0 System boots OK except it doesn't read system time from RTC: I'm always getting something like "Thu Jan 1 03:00:00 MSK 1970" (actuall this system uses /etc/localtime copied from /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Kiev; and yes, back in 1970 it was Moscow time here ;). If I reset system time using 'date' or 'ntpdate', it actually updates RTC. Why do I have such an effect? Sincerely, Dmitry -- Atlantis ISP, System Administrator e-mail: dmitry@atlantis.dp.ua nic-hdl: LYNX-RIPE
