In next screen set up machines host IP and network information. host ip 192.168.2.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 router 192.168.2.1 ns 192.168.2.1 None of this information shows up in /etc/hosts. Instead 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain ulkesh.example.com which caused some problems for some scripts :).
We are working to determine the best thing to do with /etc/hosts. Lots of factors involved, so we will just have to wait and see what happens. This issue will definitely NOT be resolved for beta3.
