Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

(daily-live 20070415)
My feisty checked the root disk the first time I booted after installation. This was because I have local time in the hardware clock, and during installation, my filesystem got a timestamp 2 hours into the future (I am on UTC+2).

When checking for the last time the fs had been checked, fsck wrongly calculated "49760 days ago" (probably due to the -2 hours), and therefore forced a check followed by immediate reboot.

I encountered the same problem on my laptop with the 20070414 live-cd. Fresh install, normal cd.

Changed in ubiquity:
