Time Zone in TinyCore, either local time or UTC

theYinYeti:
I had some trouble setting the time zone, but finally managed to do it. In case others are interested, I wrote down my notes on the subject:

I typically use "tz=EST+5EDT,M3.2.0/2,M11.1.0/2".  I'm surprised you didn't copy the contents here also.

coreplayer2:
That's interesting,  I append only "  tz=GMT+8 "  to the boot command line which appears to be satisfactory, we need more than that?

tinypoodle:
That's fine, but requires manual change to summertime and back each year, while the method in Reply #1 is "set and forget" ;).

coreplayer2:
Actually I didn't realize it was a set and forget deal.   I think it's always interesting to see another method, Isn't there also a tc script to accomplish this?
