Hi,

After an emerge, i had "*One of the files in /etc/{conf.d,init.d} or /etcrc.conf has a modification time in the future" messages at boot time, that i got rid of with re-emerging baselayout.

But with this modification time problem, i realized that my /proc and /sys directories were mounted one hour in future, and that everytime i boot.
Is that normal? (in my /etc/conf.d/clock file, TIME is set to "local" and TIMEZONE to "Europe/Paris", so i am in GMT+1)

I have this little problem too.

I think that's because of the time in my bios.

Also, I only have this message when I boot for the first time.

If I reboot, this message will not show up.

Bottom line, weird problem :(

I do not have my laptop with me right now but here comes the /etc/conf.d/clock from the winxp/gentoo box of my parents:

Code:
# /etc/conf.d/clock

# Set CLOCK to "UTC" if your system clock is set to UTC (also known as
# Greenwich Mean Time).  If your clock is set to the local time, then
# set CLOCK to "local".  Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then
# you should set it to "local".

CLOCK="local"

# Select the proper timezone.  For valid values, peek inside of the
# /usr/share/zoneinfo/ directory.  For example, some common values are
# "America/New_York" or "EST5EDT" or "Europe/Berlin".a

TIMEZONE="Europe/Amsterdam"

# If you wish to pass any other arguments to hwclock during bootup,
# you may do so here.

CLOCK_OPTS=""

# If you want to set the Hardware Clock to the current System Time
# during shutdown, then say "yes" here.

CLOCK_SYSTOHC="yes"


### ALPHA SPECIFIC OPTIONS ###

# If your alpha uses the SRM console, set this to "yes".
SRM="no"

# If your alpha uses the ARC console, set this to "yes".
ARC="no"


Hope it helps :)

I got this after doing an install once. The problem is quite apparent if you perform the following:

Code:
localhost ~ # ls -Rl /etc/{conf.d,init.d}

Note the lack of a time in the timstamp. I simply performed the following command and it fixed it:

Code:
touch /etc/{conf.d,init.d}/*


then we get:

Code:
localhost ~ # ls -Rl /etc/{conf.d,init.d}
