good morning Kurt, the 'kernel time sync error 0001' messages only appear *before* the reboot with kernel 2.6.21 (May 27 18:04:20)... previously I was running 2.6.18... but the time resets needed are still out of control.
I assume that ntpd killed itself after the failing sanity check at (May 28 03:44:53) how can we exclude a hardware problem?
