I think the assumption that the importance of a setting in an installed system should be the reason to ask it in d-i. I rather suggest removing hostname configuration from d-i altogether and make the hostname configuration in base-config work. At least IIRC this was the plan once and joey did some work to implement this but it was never finished and because of that the hostname questions in netcfg was raised to priority high. > > Other issue is the double question about hostname when dhcp fails.
