[Bug 218965] Re: preseeding hostname doesn't work in a network install

[Ben Hagen]

There is a patch at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=606636#42 which introduces a new netcfg/hostname
option that -if set- takes precedence over the RDNS/DHCP hostname magic.

  Even if the preseed file has netcfg/get_hostname set to the hostname,
  a network install will create a host named ubuntu.
