Note that the file system isn't the only place that might assume that time is correct. For example, the UUID generation algorithm derives its uniqueness guarantees from the fact that time is correctly set. If you don't have an accurate clock, you may have all sorts of strange behavior as a result. As far as the FreeRunner is concerned, it currently takes me under 8 seconds to check a 70gig SSD drive. If you put 8GB SD card into the FreeRunner smartphone, the first check after a failed battery should take at most a second. Hardly worth people going into hysterics and calling this a "grave" bug. If you really want to disable the future check, you can do this: [problems] 0x000031 = { preen_ok = true } 0x000032 = { preen_ok = true } I consider this a botch to work around broken hardware, though... - Ted -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
