Settings for Hardware Clock not Honored at Boot
Last modified: 2008-05-19 10:49:15 UTC
The setting in /etc/sysconfig/clock HWCLOCK="--localtime" is not honored at boot-time. Regardless of the setting the system always behaves as if the setting was for the hardware clock running UTC. (I don't think it plays a role here, by the system is running in a virtual box.)
Reassigning to maintainer of /etc/init.d/boot.{set,get}clock.
