OK, so this is weird. I just kickstarted a F35 VM. When it booted
up, its hostname was host156.tc.camerontech.com, as I expected it to
be.

The /etc/hostname file is blank - it just has a single empty line.

After I rebooted that VM, its hostname is set to fedora

It wouldn't be quite so bad if it set its hostname to the one it
discovered (even though you'd rather it keep on discovering it), but
changing a hostname is intolerable.

Have you tried making the hostname file immutable?


Thing is, the /etc/hostname file is blank! This is bizarre. I've just tested with F33, F34, and F35. With F33, the hostname is set to localhost. With F34 and F35, it's set to fedora. With RHEL 8.5, it's set to the reverse DNS assigned hostname. With RHEL 9 beta, it's the reverse DNS assigned hostname.

This is weirder and weirder.
