I'll stuff it into an e-mail in a sec here - Quick question however, going
back to the problem I had with these files not copying.
tar: ./usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago: Cannot hard link to
`./etc/localtime': No such file or directory
tar: ./usr/share/zoneinfo/SystemV/CST6CDT: Cannot hard link to
`./etc/localtime': No such file or directory
tar: ./usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central: Cannot hard link to
`./etc/localtime': No such file or directory
tar: ./usr/share/zoneinfo/CST6CDT: Cannot hard link to `./etc/localtime':
No such file or directory
Makes sense as they're trying to be created as cross device hard links.
What I don't understand is this:
On an otherwsie identically configured SLES-9 system (mutliple HFS) that
was created using the SLES-9 installer, the file /etc/localtime exists. So,
they cannot be hard-linking to it during install cuz /usr is already
mounted before the install begins. This is vexing because a symbolic link
to any of the target files is vanishing after IPL. I've had many symbolic
links not go away after an IPL - We use them to expose WebSphere log data
from serveral servers in one place.
Until I can solve this time zone file stuff, my cloned guest is reporting
time as UTC which is unacceptable. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Share it!
We could all learn from what you've done.
Also, learn shell, not BASH. If you need BASH-specific
functions or capability, externalize those steps. (I omit
the details of this for now.) But remember in all cases, shell is
a write-only language. That is, whatever you code in shell script
will be nigh unto impossible for others to read. ;-)
