Dear Steven Zedeck,

My question is why is it that when we get to the Uboot prompt upon a power cycle, the date is set to: 2007-00-01 00:00:00
Where is that being set/initialized? I looked through the code and I can't determine where this is being set.
Is that what the date should be? Does Uboot force it somewhere?
Our processor is the Atmel AT91SAM9RL.
We don't know what your board is, and if it's in mainline so we can actually look at the code.
In a quick scan I didn't see any code in mainline which sets such a date (which is wrong, in any case, as there is no month 00 in any of the common notations).
Is there a chance that this is actually your own custom code?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

As for my board, its based on the Atmel AT91SAM9RLEK board.
I inherited this code. So I am still looking through the code to see where the RTC is being set. All I know at the moment is that whenever I power cycle and stop at the Uboot prompt, then type "date" I see that date/time: U-Boot> date at91_rtc_readtime(): 2007-00-01 00:00:xx Date: 2007-00-01 Time: 0:00:xx
xx increments depending on when I type the date command. I just wonder where this year/month is being initialized.
thanks, Steve
