- Create a dir where to mount the rootfs: mkdir /mnt/loop-rootfs
- Mount the rootfs: mount -o loop Debian-3.0r2.ext2 /mnt/loop-rootfs
- Edit the corresponding 
files, /mnt/loop-rootfs/etc/init.d/hwclock[first].sh (I don't know which 
call of hwclock has to be commented, perhaps all...)
- Unmount the rootfs: umount /mnt/rootfs-loop
