I'm unable to make an RTC module to work:
RTC module ds3231, BPI M2Z and ARMBIAN Bookworm
i2c pins 3 and 5
Driver RTC-ds1307 loaded, because RTC-ds3231 is not available.
Why do I need a RTC-module?
Often in the field I'm not online but I do need the right time on my observation camera's.
My application does not allow me for having a monitor.
My system does the recordings by motion detection, and the recordings do need the right time on it.

Hi @Ed van den Enden,
I think your BananaPi runs an Allwinner SoC, which is similar to the OrangePi zero. Can you list the RTCs on your board?
ls /dev/rtc*
On my OrangePi's here, the H2+ SoC also has an RTC that is wildly unprecise, but it's still used as /dev/rtc0 and therefore used by the kernel to synchronize to when the kernel boots.
I do not know much about your SBC, but perhaps sharing my config for the OrangePi zero helps you as well:
I have two RTCs, on
