A NetworkManager callout could set it, but it seems we're not
doing it yet.

Try:

   ntpdate pool.ntp.org

This will also set the system clock, but not save the time
in the hardware clock.

We're also not setting the TZ correctly at this time, and I'm
almost sure that couldn't be done automatically from the
manufacturing data.
