Damien, the fact that everyone seems to get this wrong indicates that the user
interface is wrong.
The zeroconf hostname is largely irrelevant to most people (since 95% of the
desktops out there don't support zeroconf), whereas the hostname *is* very
relevant (since it is shown in millions of places).
You really need to making the setting of hostname most obvious. The zeroconf
hostname will follow it by default.

If I enter a zeroconf hostname during install, my hostname is still set to
"localhost" even though I specified a hostname.
I can go and verify that the "Zeroconf Host name" is correctly set in "Network *
Internet Configuration".
In fact the text reads as follows;
"Enter a Zeroconf host name without any dot if you don't want to use the default
host name."
So I have to add a hostname to "Host name" to get the host name I want.
