I've tried following the instructions for the 4.2.x version and it is partially working. Upon the first boot after vm instance is created from the template, the hostname is visible at the login prompt as well as by running the hostname command. However, after rebooting the instance, the hostname is lost forever and (none) is shown instead of the hostname. I've not had much time to investigate why this is happening, but it happens all the time.
Has anyone experienced similar?
