Okay I did this and get:

# /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh stop
Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method.  Use --debug option to see the details of our search
for an access method.
CMOS clock updated to Thu Oct  3 01:39:04 PDT 2019.

So I ran:

# /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh --debug
Usage: hwclock.sh {start|stop|reload|show}
       start sets kernel clock from CMOS clock
       stop and reload set CMOS clock from kernel clock

Which doesn't tell me anything...


I shut the system down and reset it, went into ARC to check on the clock and it was like 2038 and the
incorrect day/month, but the time was correct. I changed the date, rebooted and Linux thinks the
year is 2019 now!?! Any ideas?


TIA,

Ron
