Time Zone Configuration

Next, enter your system's time zone (see Figure 3-12).

Figure 3-12. Configuring the Time Zone

If you wish to set the hardware (CMOS) clock to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time, also known as UTC, or Universal Coordinated Time), select Hardware clock set to GMT. Setting it to GMT means your system will properly handle daylight-saving time, if your time zone uses it.

Select your time zone from the list and press [Enter].

TipTip
 

If you wish to change your time zone configuration after you have booted your Red Hat Linux system, become root and use the /usr/sbin/timeconfig command.
