Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory.

Right now, I'm in the middle of archlinux installation using the Installation Guide from the wiki.
I'm stuck at the "Timezone" section, set timezone.

I have installed Windows 10 on my GPT partition, UEFI, and going to dualboot it.

Time zone
Set the time zone:

# ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Region/City /etc/localtime

When I run #timedatectl, the output is "Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory." after #arch-chrood /mnt.
I remembered I can turn on ntp before chroot #timedatectl set-ntp true. Now the output is also , "Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory."

What does that mean? What's the possible issue?
if I just type...

# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/<MYzone>/<MySubZone> /etc/localtime

or skip it,  will that be a problem later?
Thank you

Re: Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory.

It says to use ln, not timedatectl
