I am new to Linux and just have RH Linux 8.0 installed on my PC, dual bootable with Windows XP using GRUB. When Linux booted, a message say "There is difference between boot sector and its backup". Does any one see this problem? How can I do manual backup to solve it? --- Don't know about that one --- Also on this dual-boot PC, the date/time is not synchronized. For example, if booted into Windows, date/time shows Oct. 27, 9:00pm; reboot into Linux, date/time shows Oct. 27, 1:00pm. Changed Linux date/time to Oct.27 9:00pm then reboot into Windows, date/time was changed to 5:00pm. If Windows date/time is changed back to it original Oct. 27, 9:00pm, Linux date/time will also be changed back to its original Oct. 27, 1:00pm. What's happened? --- More than likely you set this up wrong during installation. There's an option in the install somewhere that sets your timezone AND whether the hardware clock is set to your local time or UTC. If you set it to UTC, then Linux will check your timezone, and add/subtract the required time to/off it to get you a local time. This works great if you do that both in Windows and Linux, but craps out if you do it only on one. That's probably where the time difference is. Don't know OTTOMH where to re-set that now - somebody else will probably help you with that.
