IA workaround for setting the correct Sydney, Australia timezone after using knoppix-installer to installe Knoppix 5.1
There bug is noted at
http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Bugs/5.1.1CD
The workaround involves Editing the startup script /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig to pick up the correct timezone file (setting the timezone via KDE did not persist between reboots).
replacing the following lines in (/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig)
rm -f /etc/localtime
cp "/usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ" /etc/localtime
with the following (finding then using the correct timezone reference) seems to do the trick
#commented out following two lines and the subsequent line sets the timezone symbolic link to the correct timezone data file
#rm -f /etc/localtime
#cp "/usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ" /etc/localtime
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Sydney /etc/localtime
