Just as a tip, it's a bad idea to use the CMOS clock as something other than UTC. I don't recall all the details, but it is especially problematic around DST adjustments --- if you're an hour off, it can get confusing to figure out whether the BIOS needs DST enabled and doesn't, whether the kernel thinks the BIOS has DST enabled or not, and whether your timezone in /etc/localtime has DST enabled or not. Also, suppose the CMOS clock says it's 0230 on the day we "fall back" an hour. Is it the first or the second time around? This would make a difference of 3600 seconds in the epoch counter. Does the CMOS even tell you? If I recall correctly, this was a problem with how dates were stored in the FAT file system too. And what are you going to do if the US Congress changes the day we spring forward or fall back? IIRC they were just debating doing that to save energy costs. Unless you're dual-booting with Windows, set it to UTC.
