#438 PR merged: Prevent hang on boot if NTP can't reach any servers¶
Labels: bug
mavit opened issue at 2014-07-15 09:15:¶
If, for example, no network is available, ntpd -q will wait forever
for a response from its configured time servers.
This pull request causes NTP syncing to time-out after 10 seconds to allow the boot to complete. You'll then reach a shell prompt and get a chance to try to figure out what went wrong.
