[DragonFlyBSD - Bug #2060] installer: action for the "UTC versus local time" question is reversed

[Tim Darby via Redmine]

Issue #2060 has been updated by Tim Darby.

Description updated

I don't think I stated this well.  When the installer asks "Is this machine's CMOS clock set to UTC?", I answer "No" because the machine is set to local time.  However, answering "No" causes the installer to not add the file /etc/wall_cmos_clock, which causes the OS to use UTC time.  If the desired result of answering this question is to make the system use UTC time rather than local time, then I guess this is working correctly and this can be closed.

In usr.sbin/installer/dfuibe_installer/fn_configure.c, it appears that if
you answer "Yes" to the question "Is this machine's CMOS clock set to UTC?",
the installer will add the file /etc/wall_cmos_clock, which is what should
happen if the CMOS clock is set to local time.
