How to avoid the timesetting after reboot?

[bb]

Is it possible to avoid that the Date/Time dialog shows up after a reboot of a SL-C860?

Best regards,

I wish the C series devices kept a system battery for keeping the time correct inbetween reboots

I don´t experience that the system time is wrong after reboot. I just get the Time/Date dialog, which is unnecessary, since the time is correct.

yeah...my 5600 did not keep the time between reboots...but my 860 does...so the time setting thing is just getting in the way.....

I think that they are assuming that the only time you will want to reboot is if something hangs the Z, in this case your time may need to be adjusted.

Seems to be hardcoded somewhere as I\'ve been unable to find a script that calls the sate/time app.

BTW - how often are you rebooting? I haven\'t rtebooted for aver 3 weeks now - the last time due to mistakenly installing a OZ gcc3 ipk and crashing the Z.

I´m not rebooting because of any *real*l problems. I was experimenting with the Linux setup. Among other things I tried getting the /etc/rc.d/init.d/rc.local script to run at boot. I didn´t succeed in doing that. Have you got a hint?

Yeah, it took me a while to find, but you need to edit /root/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, it\'s an exact copy of the rc.sysinint in /etc/rc.d but it seems that the one in /etc/rc.d isn\'t run for some reason.

About 3/4 of the way down there is a commented section dealing with running /etc/rc.d/rc.local, uncomment this section and /etc/rc.d/rc.local will be run at boot time.
