I don't think this has anything to do with the hardware clock.

I think Dieter was referring to a setting you can adjust in some Linux distributions. You can either let the hardware clock run as UTC or local time. This can avoid messing up the time setting of another OS which might be started alternatively from another partition and assumes the hardware clock runs in the local timezone.


Anyway it boils down to take care of the time zone depending on your system's need.
