Hi,

With Fedora Core 5 ia64 on on Bull NovaScale 4040 server,
 hwclock can not be set when linux starts.
I get following messages:

hwclock: Open of /dev/efirtc failed, errno=2. No such file or directory.
No usabel clock interface found.
Cannot access the Hardware Clock in any known method.


Problem seems to be located in /etc/rc.sysinit file where hardware clock 
is set before device creation (/sbin/start_udev step).
When hardware clock setting step is done after device creation, hwclock 
gives right time information.


Best regards,

Francis
