Dear RedBoot users,

My IXP425 board comes with a RedBoot v1.92p1. After MontaVista boots, I 
found the pre-configured time is Jan 1, UTC 1970.

Although I can change software time and date under MontaVista, I am not 
able to synchronize hardware time using "hwclock". It says /dev/misc/rtc 
does not exist and there is no method to access the Hardware Clock. 
Besides, I prefer setting hardware time under RedBoot instead. But it 
seems RedBoot UserGuide does not elaborate on how to accomplish this. I 
would appreciate it if someone can give me some pointer.

Regards,
Zhigao

The IXP425 does not have a hardware RTC so there is nothing to set.
