[Grml] system time is too slow on a grml guest inside vmware server on a grml host

Hi

I have problems getting the time stable on a grml 1.0 guest running inside a vmware virtual machine on a grml 1.0 host.

The host is synchronized via chrony and it works. The guest is getting behind the host system time very rapidly (approx 10 Mins in an hour) I tried various options: 1 with chrony and without vmware tools time sync 2 the inverse 3 some hacks include: kern.hz=100 in lilo.conf

nothing works. I also have a grml 1.0 running as guest inside vmware workstation (the commercial product tp vmware server) on a Windows 2000 host (which has no time sync) . Here , the guest has no time sync with the host and uses chrony . Everything works in this case.

Any ideas ?

Thanks a lot Peter
