Thanks for the tip. I created the tz file and put Europe/London in it. A cat of the /etc/localtime link produces that. Still can't get the kindle to jump forward to British Summer Time, though.
Also tried recreating the symlink to /var/local/system/Europe/London but that didn't work.

Only command I can get to work is the date command, which shows UTC. timedatectl does not work. Also no /usr/share/zoneinfo directory, which a lot of guides point to.

I'm away for a few weeks now. Will get back on it when I'm back.

Thanks for the help.
