Hey, I have a question on the FF log “correction factor”.
Is this a time adjustment… looking at the logs I noticed that it “corrected” 3-4 times an hour last night and the HDD was running this am instead of spun down and idle like it normally is. The log shows that it “corrected” on and off all day yesterday.
I am running svn- 1586 on a Slug, unslung to flash on port 1 and Max HDD on port 2. Everything seems to be working fine, but I was curious if this is an issue and if it is connected to the HDD running this am. I have the DB and log files writing to the HDD.
Here is a sample from the log files:

Ya, the RTC on the slug is notoriously bad. I need to tune down those error messages, as they are annoying. 🙂
