thanks for the explanation. I'll close the issue now, since it's a problem with the 'hostname' command, not grml-chroot itself.

hostname get the name of the running system through uname syscall which does not change within a chroot. you have to edit /etc/hostname, /etc/mailname, /etc/hosts and possible /etc/postfix/main.cf yourself

Hi, Both the dnsdomainname or 'hostname --fqdn' return 'Unknown host' in my live system, so I want to use grml-chroot to fix it before building the squashfs. However, it seems no matter how I change the etc/hosts file, the hostname command within grml-chroot always returns the hostname of the host, not the chroot sub-system. Can anyone confirm such behavior? thanks
