FYI: Retu RTC script for setting and storing system time in N8x0

Hi

I hacked once this Debian script for setting the N8x0 system time from
Retu RTC during the boot and saving the time stamp when doing shutdown.

Script can coexist with other hwclock and ntpdate scripts and can work
with read-only root as well. So if script cannot store the timestamp
diff then Retu RTC is not cleared.

Great; thanks!  I'll try this out sometime.
