In aug 06 bug 142850 was opened. The symptom is the boot message |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
/dev/hda6: Superblock last write time is in the future. FIXED. |

>From the bug report and followups, I gather that early in the boot |
| 6 |
sequence the system believes the hwclock is in UTC and hence for those |
| 7 |
of us using localtime to dual boot windows, we have this problem. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Some workarounds have been proposed such as having the clock |
| 10 |
initscript precede checkroot or "adding the right number of seconds in |
| 11 |
the kernel". Alternatively one could learn to "live with" the warning |
| 12 |
printed above. |

I assume a number of you use local time not UTC and wonder how you are |
| 15 |
dealing with this problem. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Since I boot windows *very* rarely, I could switch to UTC and repair |
| 18 |
the damage after every windows boot. |
