Works for me. :)
Er .. but that is because my timezone is one of the ones that works.

Thanks for pointing this out John, I'm just expanding this so that 
people can search for it better.

If you are setting a timezone during kickstart (and who wouldn't), it 
may, or may not work.
There is a bug in anaconda (the installer) so that certain time zones 
are missing, so the kickstart part of the installer doesn't understand them.

Thanks again for pointing this out.
Troy
