I just tried booting with the noapic flag set, and then tried calling the same command to show the current setting of the hardware clock. This time, I got the same message about /dev/rtc not having interrupt functions, but this time it gets a clock tick within about 1 second, viz.
# hwclock --debug --show hwclock from util-linux-2.12r Using /dev/rtc interface to clock. Last drift adjustment done at 1180024009 seconds after 1969 Last calibration done at 1180024009 seconds after 1969 Hardware clock is on local time Assuming hardware clock is kept in local time.
