For whatever reason, the hostname is not getting put in /etc/sysconfig/network.   I do not see it after a reboot.   Are you sure this is supposed to happen?

hostname won't be set during the %post scriptlet without some help,
but it should be set on reboot just fine.  To set it for the sake of
commands in %post (for example, if you need to run cfengine):

hostname `grep HOSTNAME /etc/sysconfig/network |cut -d'=' -f2`

But as the above implies, it should already be configured on reboot.
