I made a mistake. I didn’t define the hostname in the cloud-config. Now I have this system just how I want it except the hostname.
I didn’t see a ‘ros config set’ variable for hostname, and setting ‘hostname’ to a value doesn’t seem to do anything. Changing the /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts file also doesn’t survive a reboot. Reinstalling rancheros from my thumbdrive doesn’t seem possible/easy because the thumbdrive mounts the persistent disk (rancheros-install fails because the device is busy, so I can’t reapply the cloud-config with a hostname attribute).
Thoughts on how to hack this host up to give it a hostname?
