systemctl enable/disable works just fine, since it, as you already pointed out, only creates and/or deletes symlinks. timedatectl, loginctl, localectl however need to be ran when system is booted with systemd. Note that we also do manual vconsole.conf and locale.conf creation where localectl is used, we don't use loginctl at all, but for timedatectl it's different. In order to set utc on/off you have to boot your system and do so, or create /etc/adjtime file with proper setting, which we don't cover (yes, it's /etc/adjtime, despite being moved to /var/lib/hwclock in util-linux). > That's why I thought ln -s could be used while in chroot to at least set the > most basic configuration files. > > BTW, thanks to Armin for adding role="nodump" attributes.
