[Tfug] incorrect time

[Mike Morrell]

  I have been having trouble with the time on a computer I recently put
Gentoo on.  It seems that no matter what I do to set the time, after a
reboot the time is off again.  Here is what I have done.

- during the install I set the timezone
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Phoenix /etc/localtime

- each time I set the clock I try the following commands
ntpdate time.arizona.edu
hwclock --systohc

  The clock will be correct until I reboot at which time it becomes
approximately 1.5 hours off.  I have also tried setting the time using
'date -s' and 'hwclock --set --date' with no change.  I am running ntpd
but the time is so far off that ntpd shuts itself down (beyond its
sanity limit for the offset).  Any ideas?
