The hostname is used in the install-time-generated disk volume names
(/dev/mapper/fedora_myhostname-home), so changing it is confusing.
Would it make sense to leave the old names? or rename the volumes?
That's actually another classic problem: the fact that the default hostname is
used for creating the partitions often causes issues for people who try to do a
new installation atop older Fedora installations.
