I don't see why not. hwclock lives in the /sbin directory so it will

But for some reason I feel like I am missing something as to why it is
setup the way it is. Anybody else care to add a comment on this?
/etc/localtime is usually a symlink to the real timezone file in
/usr/share/zoneinfo, if /usr is a separate filesystem from / then you
will have problems. a solution to that of course is to copy the
timezone file to /etc/ instead of using a symlink. (which is done
sometimes but tzconfig creates symlinks)
