Just beware that the Anaconda that shipped in RHEL 5.3 _fails_ to include several timezones, such as Etc/UTC, so it may not set the timezone correctly. See BZ#481617 for the issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481617 And see KB DOC#15687 for a work-around: http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-15687 NOTE: You _can_ modify your stage2.img (compressed CPIO archive, IIRC) in your kickstart tree to add the necessary Zoneinfo files (e.g., from /usr/share/zoneinfo). However, on Spacewalk / RHN Satellite, I found that updates (at least from RHN) can remove any modified stage2.img with the original, losing those changes. -- Bryan J Smith Senior Consultant Red Hat GPS SE US mailto:bjs@xxxxxxxxxx +1 (407) 489-7013 (Mobile) mailto:b.j.smith@xxxxxxxx (non-RH/ext to Blackberry) -------------------------------------------------------- You already know Red Hat as the entity dedicated to 100% no-IP-strings-attached, community software development.
