Is there any detail on when you would actually need to use the clocksource= option? I'd love to not have to deal with the kernel-vm packages since there doesn't appear to be a repo for them yet and if you have other requirements like kmod-drbd you have to manually rebuild those.
I use clocksource=pit because my VM clocks ran WAY fast without it. They still run a bit fast (1 second per 6 hours type of thing). If you do not use a clocksource option, how are your clocks?
Yes, clocksource=pit is needed IF your clock goes faster. If the clock tends to go slower, use of the divider= option should do the trick.
