You say you have the same installation of some alix boards an of some
time does work an other not or on no one??<br>
If this problem is only on one board of course there seems to be a
hardware problem..<br>
If no board is working right: Set time right and shutdown system, so
the time is saved in rtc!!<br>
While you reboot it's ok. If the system crash time is LOST if it was
not saved with shutdown.<br>
Or you can do the following:<br>
/etc/init.d/hwclock.sh reload<br>
and reboot.<br>
