hwclock --debug produced NO error message
looked at the /etc/init.d/halt script,
the command or process is
/sbin/hwclock --systohc --localtime
the command line run of this command is ok
but during halt, it failt, showing
Syncing hardware clock to system time [FAILED]
i want to try set time in the bios, what key to trigger bios setup?
