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