  However, if you install Ubuntu via another way below, you will get a
  properly displayed date and week days.

  1. When Live CD promts "Keyboard = Human", press any key to select language
  2. Use "English" as default
  3. Choose "Install Ubuntu", and press Enter
  4. You see the welcome page in English, select "中文 (繁體)" then click "繼續" (Continue)
  Note: You only choose "中文 (繁體)" after you get into the installer
  5. Finish the installation process

  Expected Result:
  You have a datetime with right display of locale format for date  and week days.

  Actual Result:
  You get the right display.
