Hostname and IP address during kickstart

I have a bunch of machines that I kickstart.  They all use DHCP to
obtain their hostname and IP address.  The names are address are all
static (in dhcpd.conf).  

Currently, in /etc/hosts on these machines, their hostname is set to
127.0.0.1 and this interferes with PVM.  I need to set their host name
to their correct IP address in /etc/hosts.  What is the easiest way of
doing this during %post in kickstart?
