So today I got a chance to take a look at this issue again, I first
verified that the issue is this there by running:

pdssim:~# hwclock -D --show
hwclock from util-linux-2.12
Using /dev/rtc interface to clock.
Last drift adjustment done at 1111783055 seconds after 1969
Last calibration done at 1111783055 seconds after 1969
Hardware clock is on local time
Assuming hardware clock is kept in local time.
Waiting for clock tick...

[this hangs]

Adding the --directisa flag does however make it wor:

pdssim:~# hwclock -D --directisa --show
hwclock from util-linux-2.12
Using direct I/O instructions to ISA clock.
Last drift adjustment done at 1111783055 seconds after 1969
Last calibration done at 1111783055 seconds after 1969
Hardware clock is on local time
Assuming hardware clock is kept in local time.
Waiting for clock tick...
...got clock tick
Time read from Hardware Clock: 2005/03/28 18:18:02
Hw clock time : 2005/03/28 18:18:02 = 1112051882 seconds since 1969
Mon Mar 28 18:18:02 2005  -0.736616 seconds

Here's the version of the util-linux package:

pdssim:~# dpkg -l | grep util-linux
ii  util-linux     2.12-10        Miscellaneous system utilities

And the kernel version:

pdssim:~# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.8-2-386 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version
3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-6)) #1 Mon Jan 24 03:01:58 EST 2005

The file isolinux/f1.txt on the CD-ROM contains this line:

This is a Debian sarge installation CD-ROM, built on 20050305.

So I think this must have been a daily snapshot post RC2 actually, in
either case it's a recent install CD.
