@Cyril
So far, it's not abnormal you don't have a /dev/adjtime file yet. This file is
created by hwclock, and as hwclock is failing due to a missing /dev/rtc ...
However, I can't tell why you don't have a rtc device (it seems the /dev/rtc is
only missing in x86-64 installation).
Can you try this ?
hwclock --show --debug --directisa

Again, my system clock was 1 hour 15 (closer to 1 hour 20 now) late when I
switch my computer on. I didn't change the clock, but shut it down, and switch
it on again. To my surprise, the system clock was still 1 hour 15 late, not 2
hour 30 as I thought it would be. But then, I remembered that hwclock skip any
calibration if there is less than 24 hours elapsed.
So I fixed the clock once more; then, as root, I edited the /etc/adjtime file
to reset all values to 0. Finally, I saved the system clock to the hardware
clock (hwclock --systohc) so that the /etc/adjtime is restored with the right
values, but without that ugly "-10808.673458" systematic drift rate (which is
now equal to 0).
I'll see tomorrow if my system clock is correct or not...
