# hwclock

# hwclock --show

I  am concerned re
notes section from 'man hwclock'

 "It  is important that the System Time not have any dis‐
       continuities such as  would  happen  if  you  used  the
       date(1L) program to set it while the system is running.
"
which I did,    as per earlier

Do you expect trouble from this?

thanks
Jack
