Correct, this is the way to set a STATIC hostname. This is probably |
10 |
how most people set their hostnames for hand-built machines. If |
11 |
you're running a cluster or using orchestration/etc then there are |
12 |
better ways to do it. However, you're not really following the Gentoo |

handbook in these sorts of cases. |
