Thanks for your report. This is also bug 47859, and can be worked around by not choosing to install NTP support while running the installer. It can be installed after rebooting into the newly-installed system by right-clicking on the date/time applet and selecting "Adjust Date & Time". This is fixed in 6.06.1.
