Debian and its clones In my never ending search for the ultimate challenge, I decided to remove Gentoo Linux from my trusty laptop and install something else that wasn't as resource starving. Thus, Debian was selected.

GMT system clock: choose YES
by GentleReader on Wed 2nd Feb 2005 00:33 UTC

Any Linux system should be running with the clock set to GMT, not local time. Things will just work as they should. Again, answer YES to the question "does the system clock use GMT," unless you are dual booting Windows on the machine.

You set your time zone later, which has nothing to do with setting the system clock to GMT.
