I tried a few things. First I did replace the CMOS battery just in
case, no go was not the issue.
Second I tried MAKEDEV /dev/rtc which created a device file with a
MAJOR/MINOR pairing of 10, 135 just as devices.txt specifies, however
this did not work and the device was gone after a reboot.
The I tried a series of mknod's with varying MAJOR/MINOR pairings i.e.
mknod /dev/rtc c 10 135 and mknod /dev/rtc c 10 254 and mknod /dev/rtc
c 254 0 none of which worked and the device always disappears after a
reboot.
Is there some log file I can check to look for errors in creating
devices at boot?
