Yeah "iburst" was all that this needed. It's perfect for my needs at least. Haven't seen anything like that in my dracut scripts either. Similar to Per, I may not be looking for the right thing.
I can't find it anymore either. Odd.
So historically we used to have a hack that set the system time to the initrd build time if it was bogus:

That got removed with the transition to dracut and I seem to remember that the hack we then added was to take the last mounted time from your / file system and apply that as system time. But I agree that I can't find any reference to it.
Sounds like a pretty good idea.
I'm surprised any of the non-RTC ARM systems boot at all then - ext3 used to complain really loudly if the last mount time was newer than the system time.
AFAICT, my nanopi neo air does have an RTC, but it still comes up with clock set to 1970 <something> on boot. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.4°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
