But surely this should be running very early in the boot, and a

That hasn't been what I have observed, and doesn't cover the command line
case. If you have an NFS root this would also not be the case as init will
be run after the network is setup and root mounted.

There was an implied "and if this isn't the case, a bug should be
filed".  I hadn't thought about NFS-root though.

Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Is there anything else I can contribute here?

I found a bug with this patch. If you are building with the deb packaging then the conffiles is set to /etc/hostname, but the file may not always be created... this causes a failure condition when generating .deb packages.

i.e.:

-CONFFILES_${PN} = "${sysconfdir}/fstab ${sysconfdir}/hostname"
+CONFFILES_${PN} = "${sysconfdir}/fstab ${@['', '${sysconfdir}/hostname'][(d.getVar('hostname', True) != '')]}"
