Unfortunately this has not worked for me as there is the error file
"NetTime_Kick not found" ie SetTime is running before !NetTime has fully
started and initialised the NetTime module.
I have my !Boot as supplied by the RComp Beagleboard Scheme. It has
!NetTime in $.Network.Utils folder and has it !Boot Configuration "Run at
startup" which has the lines:
$.!Boot.Choices.Boot.Desktop$.!Boot.Choices.Boot.DesktopIfThere
Boot:^.Network.Utils.!NetTime Then Filer_Boot Boot:^.Network.Utils.!NetTime
IfThere Boot:^.Network.Utils.!NetTime Then Filer_Run
Boot:^.Network.Utils.!NetTime
In $.!Boot.Choices.Boot.Desktop
Is this where your copy is?
