We use DVD to install Ubuntu 15.04 kernel 3.18.0-8-generic version on our 
PowerVM system. After install, I am seeing this error 
"/build/buildd/linux-3.18.0/drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device" 
on the dmesg log...

It must be an order of operations thing: something is trying to do the hctosys 
before the driver is loaded. A few seconds later the driver loads and it seems 
fine after that.
