This way one changes hostname reported by
hostname
command (which usually though not necessarily is what the machine is
registered on network with). My impression was the OP (original poster)
wishes the system claim to be different from (CentOS) as he makes hist own
tweaked distribution disk (or whatever the reason is). This last (CentOS,
RedHat Enterprise, Debian,...) appears in many places, GRUB configuration
file, splash screen image to name some.
