I will be looking more into this.  Obvious when you get ones nose

arm SoC booting.  Your logs all have the wrong time for the boot
messages until there is a network to get time.  I have some ideas for a
process that will set time a boot to the time of the last poweroff.  at
least that is 'close enough' for starters.
I believe that's the solution Apple adopted for the AppleTV, which has
no rtc and couldn't use a certificate to connect to a wireless network
because the certificate wasn't valid in 1970.

On the Fedora-arm list I was told about systemd-timesyncd.

Much better for these systems than chronyd which is suppose to be the replacement for ntpdate...

I am looking into this; it sounds exactly what I need. Plus when you make your os image you can:

touch /<mount>/var/lib/systemd/clock
chown systemd-timesync:systemd-timesync /<mount>/var/lib/systemd/clock

And firstboot will have a rather current time.

Oh course this assumes the image builders include systemd-timesync as part of the base install.
