A better solution would be to have d-i install libnss-myhostname.

I am not sure if this is a good idea: often the systems created by debootstrap are actually intended to be booted somehwere else, and then using the host system hostname will be wrong. Hence this workaround would only be needed if all these conditions are true: - the installed system is intended to be used with chroot on the system where it was built - the host system hostname is not in the DNS - libnss-myhostname has not been installed -- ciao, Marco
