This issue is reproducible in qemu-system-alpha. I have never seen that on other architectures. In my case there are a few infos about the issue in the boot log (I don't remember seeing that before, so they might have appeared with recent systemd versions): [ 15.010734] systemd[1]: Set hostname to <alpha>.
