Details on this package are located in Section 11.2.2, “Contents of Bootscripts.”
The Bootscripts package contains a set of scripts to start/stop the CLFS system at bootup/shutdown.
Install the package:
make DESTDIR=${CLFS} install-minimal
The setclock script reads the time from the
hardware clock, also known as the BIOS or the Complementary Metal Oxide
Semiconductor (CMOS) clock. If the hardware clock is set to UTC, this
script will convert the hardware clock's time to the local time using
the /etc/localtime
file (which tells the
hwclock program which timezone the user is in). There
is no way to detect whether or not the hardware clock is set to UTC, so
this needs to be configured manually.
If you do not know whether or not the hardware clock is set to UTC,
you can find out after you have booted the new machine by running the
hwclock --localtime --show
command, and if
necessary editing the /etc/sysconfig/clock
script.
The worst that will happen if you make a wrong guess here is that the
time displayed will be wrong.
Change the value of the UTC
variable below
to a value of 0
(zero) if the hardware clock
is not set to UTC time.
cat > ${CLFS}/etc/sysconfig/clock << "EOF"
# Begin /etc/sysconfig/clock
UTC=1
# End /etc/sysconfig/clock
