[Users] persistent modifications to /etc/hosts?

Hello, I would like to add an entry to /etc/hosts. I modifiy it and then: # persist /etc/hosts File already persisted: /etc/hosts But actually at reboot my modification is not there again.... This with ovirt-node-iso-2.5.5-0.1.fc17.iso # cat /etc/redhat-release oVirt Node Hypervisor release 2.5.5 (0.1.fc17) What am I missing? Thanks in advance, Gianluca

Hey Gianluca, I think you ain't missing anything. I just tried it myself and it seems to be a bug. It's always a tricky to get the persistence stuff with files related to the early boot process right .. I try to remember this issue, but if you want to make sure that we don't forget about it please open a bug.

Hello, in the mean time someone picks up the bugzilla to give eedback, is there any way to fill up /etc/hosts with some entries at the early boot phase? Such as an rc.local or hook or something else...? Thanks in advance, Gianluca
