[Bug 563618] Re: Ignoring a broken clock results in infinite reboots; not ignoring results in fsck failure; no solution to this problem

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.92bubuntu77

---------------
initramfs-tools (0.92bubuntu77) lucid; urgency=low

  * Add a new 'fixrtc' script that tries to set the system clock forward
    based on the last mount time of the root disk; without this kludge,
    systems without a working RTC will end up in a perpetual reboot loop.
    Thanks to Dave Martin <Dave.Martin at arm.com> for the patch.  LP: #563618.
