<title>FHS compliance notes</title>

<para>The FHS recommends that we use /var/lib/hwclock, instead of the
usual /etc, as the location of the adjtime file. To make hwclock
FHS-compliant, run the following:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>cp hwclock/hwclock.c{,.backup}
sed 's%etc/adjtime%var/lib/hwclock/adjtime%' \
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;hwclock/hwclock.c.backup &gt; hwclock/hwclock.c
mkdir -p /var/lib/hwclock</userinput></screen></para>
