Agreed that 'hwclock' updates the hardware clock
while shutting down the m/c. This does not have
anything to do with the 'rtc' module and hwclock does
in no way use it. Th

add in /etc/conf.modules:
alias char-major-10 misc

You are running kerneld. You go to open a character device with major
number 10. There is no driver for the device and kerneld tries to load
