I wonder if the fact that this Mac has its internal clock batery complete=
ly
empty might have something to do with this problem. As the date is changi=

constantly, the booter always complains about it.
Might this be tha cause of the filesystem getting corrupted?
I would like to know if someone else has had this problem.
