[install-discuss] Issue with time during B66/67 installation

[Karen Tung]

Hi Lars,

There's a change to update timezone files integrated in build 65.  I am 
not sure
whether that caused the problem you saw or not. 
See bug 6542933 (http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6542933)
for more details.  I am going to contacted the engineer who made the 
change and
see whether he has any ideas about the problem you encountered.

Thanks,

--Karen
