The message says that no century information is found in the CMOS RAM,
the hardware clock itself seems to keep only 2 year digits. The century
is then deduced as 1900 if the year number is less than 70 and 2000
otherwise.

This heuristic will fail 2030. Then the clock will start with a
date 100 years in the past and gets corrected later during the
boot process. Ugly, but probably not fatal.
