 |

Settiup up time, clock, date, zoneinfo and localtime might be a pesky issue when you dual boot to Linux and Windows.
The following two methods work for me. The first one seems better.
example timezone: PST8PDT (West Coast of North America)
< First Method >
| Code: | (super user terminal)
# cd /sbin
# hwclock
# date
# date MMDDhhmmyyyy
/* where MM=Month, DD=Day, hh=Hour (24 format), mm=minute, yyyy=year*/
/etc/rc.conf
CLOCK="PST8PDT"
# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/PST8PDT /etc/localtime |
< Second Method >
| Code: | (super user terminal)
# cd /sbin
# hwclock
# date
# date MMDDhhmmyyyy
/* where MM=Month, DD=Day, hh=Hour (24 format), mm=minute, yyyy=year*/
/etc/rc.conf
CLOCK="local"
# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/PST8PDT /etc/localtime
/etc/profile
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/PST8PDT /etc/localtime |
