[Test-Announce] Fedora 20 Beta Test Compose 1 (TC1) Available Now!

Possibly I described my problem with the LXDE Live CD unclearly or not correctly.I didn't install F20, I only run F20 via Live CD, just for fun, only to see "what is Fedora 20", and doing this the system time is permanently set to UTC (as Adam said). In this case, in my opinion independent from Anaconda or Windows philosophy, the system time should not be changed (only by a try out of F20). I think on users, who want only to try out Fedora 20, to decide is it fine or not. Bug 1018162.

This is usually the result of Linux and Windows having different
opinions about whether the system clock should be set to UTC or local
time. I believe the installer is currently intended to guess the system
clock should be set to local time if Windows is installed, or UTC if it
is not. If you have Windows installed but system clock set to UTC, it
will break, that's kinda expected. If you have Windows installed and
system clock set to local time and it's still going wrong, I think you
should file a bug against anaconda.
