How to disable UTC time?



Dear all,


My BIOS clock is set the time as my local time, debian thinks it's UTC time, so it adds 8 hours because I'm in timezone UTC+8, this is not correct.  I do these actions to disable UTC:

1.  add UTC=no in /etc/init.d/rcS
2. remove UTC , add LOCAL in /etc/adjtime
 
Neither of the above works.  Yesterday  I set the BIOS clock as UTC time, then Linux added 8 hours to it, it's my local time which was correct.  But this morning, the system time in Linux is 8 hours ahead again. 

So how to disable UTC or set the correct clock?  I'm using Debian Wheezy.

Best regards,
Yuwen
