use boot cheat code tz=America/Vancouver
I Installed Knoppix 8.1 on Hard drive.
There is an issue with the Time setting.
Here is what I found out so far:
a) The BIOS of my MSI motherboard is set to universal time UTC.
b) In /etc/adjtime I find
'0.000000 1177000000 0.000000
1177000000
UTC'
c) After setting my time zone via ---> Preferences ---> Date and Time to 'America/Vancouver
I checked /etc/timezone and found the right entry - America/Vancouver - and the right time appears in the panel.
After each restart/reboot of the computer, /etc/timezone is overwritten with 'localtime'
and I have to set the timezone new as I did before.
What can I do to have the /etc/timezone entry permanent?
use boot cheat code tz=America/Vancouver
I have a multi system configuration - Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 10.
I installed Knoppix and I have to select the system I want to use from a grub.conf. menu which comes up after start.
Where do I have the access to enter the cheat code for Knoppix?
Here is the entry for Knoppix boot in my grub.cfg. Where would I have to enter the code 'tz-America/Vancouver?
PHP Code:
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux (buster/sid) (on /dev/sdc1)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-simple-d3e1c0de-0517-45d5-b1a8-518122a550b8' {

I guess this would be the line where I have to replace tz=localtime to
---> tz=America/Vancouver ?Yes exactly, that's the line....it works probably for all cheat codes...Great feature...This might be my main Linux OS from now on!
Thank you fredvej for the hint...Issue [SOLVED]
