 Hi.

 Look in /etc/sysconfig/clock. My system clock is set to local time, so 
 i write UTC=0. If I understand rightly, your system clock is set to 
 UTC, so you should write UTC=1 and then the system will adjust 
 appropriately.

I think /etc/sysconfig/clock is an LFS file. When you are at chapter 6, 
the system you use is still the host.
So /etc/sysconfig/clock might be useless.

Actually, what is output at the end of the tzselect script assumes that 
the host clock is set up to UTC (see 'man date' for details), which 
might not be true. So you should not bother much about that output, and 
wait until chapter 7.9 configuring the setclock script to set up the 
clock properly for the LFS system. Right now, you just have to configure 
the /etc/localtime file.

[lfs-support] Can't set up my timezone correctly

2013-06-24 Thread Sergey Shidlovsky
Greetings to all LFS builders!

Now I'm at the beginning of chapter 6. I've successfully built Glibc
package and now I'm configuring it. After locales installation there's a
mention of tzselect script which helps to set up timezone properly. After
answering a few questions I get the following answer:

---
The following information has been given:

Ukraine
most locations

Therefore TZ='Europe/Kiev' will be used.
Local time is now:  Mon Jun 24 23:48:23 EEST 2013.
Universal Time is now:  Mon Jun 24 20:48:23 UTC 2013.
