<div>Probably, when the BE/FE is started up, it reports the BIOS time (that is wrong) in the log, but immediately after it the OS update the time to what's set for Local (that is right), and this explain the time-warp in the log.

</div>I would check UTC is set to yes in /etc/default/rcS, set the time to<br>
UTC in the bios and reset the timezone to CET using 'dpkg-reconfigure<br>
tzdata'.<br>
