A system booted up with a wrong date & time is extremely annoying. It happens to me once I installed the Fedora 9.
What happens is that Fedora 9 seems to treat the initialize the system time from hardware clock as UTC time no matter you choose to store it as UTC time or LOCAL time. It works fine if I store the hardware clock as UTC time, but that unfortunately screw up other OS in the system such as Windows.
--- New Solution ---
I simply upgraded to kernel 2.6.26 with CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC enabled. That solved my time problem.
--- Obsolete ---
I did a little work around for this, setting the system time with hardware clock in LOCAL time in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit (about line 745).
# xman: The system seems to read hardware clock as UTC time no matter I set to store hardware clock as local or UTC. # xman: This force the system time set to local timezone. hwclock --localtime --hctosys # xman: Try to correct the timestamp of /proc and /sys. touch /proc touch /sys
