This is from the Centos-arm list.

I have this running on a number of Centos7-armfhp Cubieboards.

There is a quicker workaround here:

But it's only for battery-backed RTC.

Best would be to have merge this feature into systemd or dracut I would say.

Better handling of boot time for SOCs without RTC battery is needed.

I noticed that this build is coming up with a time of Jun 22 this year, rather than the old way of starting with EPOCH time.  How does it get this time?  Is it from a timestamp on a file?  the installer could mount the root partition and touch the file used and thus first boot would be card install time.

I also noticed that each boot is with this Jun 22nd date.  So whatever is used, should have its date/time advanced.

Would be nice...
