Not good to post the same question or problem in two different locations.
See my answer in the other Xenilpup topic.

You can add the parameter TZ to your kernel boot parameters, for example:

Code: Select all

... pfix=ram TZ=EST5EDT ...

but the TZ variable usually is the name of a timezone file, and the initrd does not have those files. Maybe something like TZ=UTC+5 would work, I haven't tried it.

For Brisbane, Australia the correct parameter is:

Code: Select all

TZ=AEST-10

The letters are comment only, they can be anything, only the number and it's sign is significant.
Note: the sign is the opposite of what wouid normally be expected; Brisbane, Australia is at UTC +10.

AD: If you use any of the "FrugalPup" utilities to do your frugal install an approprriate TZ paramter should be included in the generated "grub2" "kernel" line.
