Ok, I want to go on the record and place my hand on a digital bible or whatever to swear that I've thoroughly searched, searched again, searched google and my hair has turned 3 shades of gray since last night looking for info on this.

What I'm doing:
I'm trying to change the hostname of my XBMCLive install (installed to HDD) from XBMCLive to MediaDragon...
I've done this 3 times on fresh installs by editing the /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts files...

The problem:
Every time I do this when I reboot the system it only boots to a login prompt.
I'm assuming that its breaking X and not allowing startx to run but to be honest I'm still new to configuring X therefor, I keep breaking it and not being able to figure out for the life of me how to fix it....

The plead:
Any help what so ever would be great. If I need to read more I'm willing... I just don't want to start pulling out my now gray hair over something that should be simple >_<

Thanks in advance!

Apparently there is a script that changes it back.

Is there an /etc/xbmc/live.d dir? The script should be in there.

I only ever change /etc/hostname

Works for me.

Network and ssh login prompt both hold the value after reboot without issue

Its not changing back... It breaks XBMC so that it only boots to a prompt and not into XBMC
