There's a crude hack here:
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-15687

Basically, there are problems setting timezone in kickstart for some users.


Works for me. :)
Er .. but that is because my timezone is one of the ones that works.

Thanks for pointing this out John, I'm just expanding this so that people can search for it better.

If you are setting a timezone during kickstart (and who wouldn't), it may, or may not work. There is a bug in anaconda (the installer) so that certain time zones are missing, so the kickstart part of the installer doesn't understand them.

Thanks again for pointing this out.

If harping on it helps, would mention that this problems with setting timezone in ks exists in RHEL 5.3.

I've mentioned it here (and on CentOS) with the idea that the clones might not stick _too_ closely to RHEL here.




Connie already has looked into it and SL 5.3 Beta 2 should have a patch fixing this problem. We already have patches in the installer for other things, so fixing an actual bug is no big deal for us. :)
