#2 Documentation : Adjusting date time time zone for multi-boot platforms

[pcar75]

Bonjour,
It would benefit many users if the documentation would mention how to set up date-time-timezone upon setup of JamulusOS, as Ubuntu keeps the hardware clock in UTC time and Windows keeps it in local time. The difference, not readily apparent at first, and can throw havoc for scheduled jobs and conditional backups.

Thanks for considering this.

Hello,

Thanks for the tips. I notice that either solutions are not ideal. Also putting this in Jamulus OS documentation can confuse average and beginner users ... I think it's more an advanced feature and you have to know what you do and what are the drawbacks.

I decided to not put it in the wiki. But if needed information is here as well as on internet. If you want to post on the v2 forum about this, you are welcome.

BR,
Laurent
