How did you set the date? There's a change in recent Fedoras where using
the "date" command or ntpdate , then rebooting won't store the date in the
RTC. You need to use hwclock to set the hardware RTC.
Gnome UI and ntpd will do the right thing. I don't like this change either,

Working with Pungi 2.1.4 to build the School Server OLPC spin (which
fir test purposes is being done on F14, though that's not the final
target).
- Seems like Pungi has for a long time avoided setting a smart TMPDIR
when calling anaconda's buildinstall. This uses a sizable chunk of
/tmp . I've pac

XO OSs are complex and tricky... and bu

have laptops out there with an earlier 1
Ay ay ay!
This last 12 months have been frantic, as I've ended up biting off a
ton more than common sense would recommend to chew. And then chewing,
