As for your 8 hours drift, it might be because you set up Debian to think the hardware clock was UTC, not local time. What does /etc/default/rcS say? If you're going to double-boot with Mac OS, you need to tell Debian the hardware clock is set to local time. Unless that is, one knows of a way to make Mac OS think of the hardware clock as UTC...
yeah, set its timezone to London ;-)seriously though i was having all kinds of wacky trouble with the clock under linux until i set the hardware clock to GMT and configured linux accordingly..
the only thing I am using macos for at the moment is mail which will change as soon as i finish figuring out fetchmail+ promail ;-) ymmv if you use macos more ..
