board with no RTC

We have a 440gx based custom board.  I have learned that it does not
have a RTC. Has anyone had any success with a board without a RTC, or is
it even possible?  How much of a problem will this cause? =20

Should we get the board respun with a RTC?  We would prefer using a 2.4
kernel, but would certainly go to a 2.6 kernel if that made things
easier.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

There shouldn't be any problems without RTC except the fact that you 
need to worry about getting correct time.

I have many 4xx-based boards without RTC. They "just work".
