Strange host name behavior in F7T2

When in F7T2, the terminal prompt lists my computer as localhost, even though I gave it a name during install.
[root localhost ~]#
When in F7T1, it lists my computer as F7T1, the name I gave it when installing from DVD.
[root f7t1] ~]#
The /etc/hosts files have the same form:
[root localhost ~]# diff /etc/hosts /mnt/f7t1/etc/hosts
3c3
<
127.0.0.1
f7t2.thetoolshed.us f7t2 localhost.localdomain localhost
---
> 127.0.0.1
f7t1.thetoolshed.us f7t1 localhost.localdomain
localhost
This naming persists, even though I set hostname with the hostname command.
The next time I boot to f7t2, the hostname is back to "localhost"
[root localhost ~]# hostname
localhost
[root localhost ~]# hostname f7t2.thetoolshed.us
[root localhost ~]# hostname
f7t2.thetoolshed.us
In f7t1:
[root f7t1 ~]# hostname
f7t1.thetoolshed.us
Here are the /etc/sysconfig/network file contents:
[root localhost ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
yesHOSTNAME=f7t2.thetoolshed.us
[root localhost ~]# cat /mnt/f7t1/etc/sysconfig/network
HOSTNAME=f7t1.thetoolshed.us
NETWORKING=yes
yesHOSTNAME=f7t1.thetoolshed.us
There was a bug in F7t1 anaconda (bugzilla #227250) that didn't honor the host name set by the user; is that still the problem? Or, is there something I'm forgetting to do?
I added this comment to the bug report.
In this case, removing the yes from yesHOSTNAME and restarting the network does not solve the naming problem.
[root localhost ~]# service network restart
Shutting down interface eth0: [ OK ]
Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ]
Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ]
Bringing up interface eth0:

[ OK ]
[root localhost ~]#
