Hi Sandeepa,

You can set the time zone to what ever you want.  I have seen in the past that yum wasn't able to update things if the time wasn't set to something reasonable.

If you are building a kernel on the simulator, you probably want to prune the list of modules in the feodra config to just the minimal and use the following as the starting point for the kernel:

make localmodconfig

Similarly when building systemtap on the simulator you probably want to disable the building of the documentation, which is very slow, with a --disable-docs in the configure.
