Description of Problem: During installation, the /etc/sysconfig/clock file did not seem to be created, so it got messed up on this file not being there. I created the file from a 7.1 installation and it then bombed out on line 387, which when commented out it worked fine. I don't know python well enough to troublshoot it though.
This defect considered MUST-FIX for Fairfax gold-release.
I have fixed the problem with the installer not creating the /etc/sysconfig/clock file. However, it would be helpful if you could attach the traceback that you saw as well as your /etc/sysconfig/clock file that you copied from the 7.1 system.
I have fixed the installer such that it writes out a /etc/sysconfig/clock file. I have also fixed ksconfig such that it will not crash in the event that /etc/sysconfig/clock file doesn't exist. Thanks for your report.
