installation problem on setting timezone manually


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

when I tried to install Armbian (Armbian_23.8.1_Lepotato_bookworm_current_6.1.50.img.xz) on my Le Potato, it asked me to enter the desired value of the TZ environment variable when I chose not to set the timezone automatically. however I am confused with what is a valid Posix timezone string. here are my attempts:

Please enter the desired value of the TZ environment variable.
For example, AEST-10 is abbreviated AEST and is 10 hours
ahead (east) of Greenwich, with no daylight saving time.
UTC
'UTC' is not a conforming Posix timezone string.
Please enter the desired value of the TZ environment variable.
For example, AEST-10 is abbreviated AEST and is 10 hours
ahead (east) of Greenwich, with no daylight saving time.
UTC-0
'UTC-0' is not a conforming Posix timezone string.
Please enter the desired value of the TZ environment variable.
For example, AEST-10 is abbreviated AEST and is 10 hours
ahead (east) of Greenwich, with no daylight saving time.
GMT
'GMT' is not a conforming Posix timezone string.
Please enter the desired value of the TZ environment variable.

I had problems with the update: apt update

supposedly it was a problem with time.
helped:

sudo apt-get install ntpdate
sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org

and I tried before the entry :upade
 

apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false -o Acquire::Check-Date=false update

but I had another problem with the reboot option which didn't always work?  And also restarting the Pi-3 LTS after the poweroff option from the button on the case for 2 seconds.

I switched to FW from the Orange PI provider:
Orangepi3-lts_3.0.8_debian_bullseye_server_linux5.16.17
and now it's OK?
