By not working I mean whenever I start my PC it shows the time 00.00.00 
Jan1,1999
While booting with  "init=/bin/sh" it hangs afterthe following line :

init-2.05b#

I had left for around an hour after it appears to hang.

At present I have got a temporary solution--I have removed the battery from 
motherboard and now it starts nicely (Ofcourse I have to press F1 whenever I 
start the PC)

Thanks for your help
