[IDEA] Use Raspberry Pi Imager to configure WLAN country, time zone & keyboard layout

[TheOldPresbyope]

I can repro @jenzd's result.

I told the Pi Imager I wanted WiFi country "DE" and locale settings "Europe/Berlin" and "de". Burnt the uSD card and booted.

In addition to the WiFi country still being set to "US" in wpa_supplicant.conf I notice the locale variables all still have US-based values. I don't know if this matter if the install is used strictly as a moOde player.

Code:

pi@moode837:~ $ timedatectl show
Timezone=Europe/Berlin
LocalRTC=no
CanNTP=yes
NTP=yes
NTPSynchronized=yes
TimeUSec=Wed 2024-01-03 04:04:47 CET
pi@moode837:~ $ more /etc/default/keyboard
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="de"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""

BACKSPACE="guess"
pi@moode837:~ $ locale
