I have a server with VMware ESXi4 with two FreeBSD-amd64 virtual machines (one 7.2, one 8.0). I wanted to do a shutdown -r of the 8.0 machine. The system when down, started 'Rebooting ..', showed the FBSD Welcome screen, counted down 10 seconds, .. then nothing happened, waited about 5 minutes nothing happened. I had do power-off the Virtual Machine, then power-on and it rebooted. After that I saw the time (date command) on that machine was 5 minutes behind ... Why is that? And can the 5 minutes behind in time be caused by that 5 minute 'hang' period?
