- Variables are wrongly taken from GRMLBASE.var.
- Closing it.

Hi,

Tong, for the future: please don't report to the mailinglist and the
BTS at the same time. If you want to discuss anything the
mailinglist is fine, bugreports are fine for the BTS. But I don't
want to keep track on an issue on two separate ressources, thanks.

Who says that UTC/TIMEZONE are supported within grml-live.conf?
Looks like you're searching for
/etc/grml/fai/config/class/GRMLBASE.var & related.

Please re-execute without the -F option and provide the output of
grml-live's startup splash.

And JFTR: /etc/grml/grml-live.local is definitely supported ans
works, I'm using it all the day and for the daily buildd as well.

From above log, and where my .iso is generated, I think the file
/etc/grml/grml-live.local has no effect to grml-live.

Please verify.
