The processor is ppc860T. BB 0.6 ? AFAICT there is no such version. Do you mean busybox-0.60.5 ? This is awfully old. Maybe you should try running an up-to-date version of busybox first?

You should understand that the busybox tools only provide limited functionality, so fancy features like complex timezone support may not be available.
