Bug Description

Downloaded and booted with current netboot installer dated 04-Oct-2015 09:14

Once reaching the location section, timezone correctly selects Europe/London.

If though I tell it that's wrong and to let me choose I am given only a few US timezones and Samoa to choose from - screenshot attached

Indeed, these are all the timezones for the US.

What country did you pick when starting the installer? If you picked US if you don't live there, why did you choose it?

Looking back, it may still be a good idea to provide an easier way to get back in the list of timezones, but this should have listed you the right time zones for the country picked at the beginning of installation.

Chose English as language, UK as keyboard etc.

Didn't choose US at all.

Just redid the whole thing - using exactly the same inputs. Same end result - US timezones.
