My take on this is that the kernel in the distribution includes compiled in
support for i-386, however should Joergen want to just have an i-386 kernel
he can recompile then from the sources?

Any suggestions?

Try going into your bios and checking what the time is there. If it is not correct,
correct it.
Probably your operating system is setting its clock by the hardware clock (bios).
If you don't know how to do that, just ask again :-)
