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

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.
