sorry to bother again about this issue, but now i checked that my DNS
server works correclty:
i can boot into the live system and "# dig" reverse DNS queries.
but "# hostname" still returns "fai-live-host" (which is also in
/etc/hostname).
"# hostname -f" fails (temporary failure in name resolution). if i log
in to the live system and change the hostname to the correct hosname by
hand, "# hostname -f" also works.
the ${HOSTNAME} variable is always "fai-live-host".
again my question: where is the hostname (and the HOSTNAME variable) set
during the FAI boot? how can i debug what's happening there? or is there
another check i could run?
any ideas?
thanks in advance!

hello
i seem to have some problems with my DHCP/DNS settings. when trying a
FAI installation, the HOSTNAME variable always resolves to
"fai-live-host". i tried to create a workaround that gets the hostname
from the ipaddress, assigns it to $HOSTNAME (and exports HOSTNAME). but
that does not work: FAI ends up in a shell and $HOSTNAME is still
"fai-live-host".
where does FAI assign the HOSTNAME variable? can't i change it? or what
else could have gone wrong?
(this is on FAI 3.4.0ubuntu2)
thanks in advance!
