I have no idea if the kernel does anything like that itself, like the mount count of a filesystem. It might be useful that we feed it some boot counter. Kurt

make sense. Having ntpdate clear the unsynced flag doesn't make sense since it would start writing a time to the RTC each 11 minutes, and as Ben said you have no idea which of the 2 clocks is the most correct one. I can also understand that systemd doesn't set the clock for just the same reason. Either the clock is synched and it's written, or it's not suched, it's unknown which one is the most correct, and it's not written. Kurt
