No, the installer _should_ allow you to set the clock (or offer to use NTP if network is available). Otherwise, if the clock is off, you end up with a confusing system. You _must_ set the timezone if the system clock is not UTC (which is still the most common case and will be for the forseeable future). There are many timestamps used during install (config file modification times, RPM database has package install times, etc.), and it is dumb that the installer essentially treats these as random numbers. At a minimum, the installer should at least _show_ what it thinks the time is after setting the timezone. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
