This resulted in a kernel which was missing /dev/rtc, which caused the following message on boot:
* Setting system clock using the hardware clock [UTC] ...
hwclock: Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method.
hwclock: Use the --debug option to see the details of our search for an access method.
* Failed to set the system clock
[ !! ]
I corrected this by running:
genkernel --menuconfig all
and enabling Device Drivers / Real time Clock.
This got things working properly.
So, is this a bug? Or just something I don't understand about genkernel? I would have expected the hardware clock to work without my manual intervention.
