Comment 29 for bug 628087

@ Evan Dandrea,

You said, "Advanced users can still set their own hostname by putting netcfg/get_hostname=ubuntupad on the live CD's kernel command line. To do this, press a key when you see the "keyboard = accessibility options" image, then select a language, press F6, followed by escape."

I'd like to try that but before doing so I'd like to know what logs/files to include if it should fail.

I'm not even sure at what point past that to look for the option to edit computer-name/hostname.

I'm just an end user that's been iso-testing for about 2 1/2 years, but I take this seriously. If I can't figure it out who can?

My goal is to make everyone's first Ubuntu experience as great as mine was with a 4 month old Gutsy :^)
