#1070: recovery-mode-config does not set /etc/hosts correctly--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------

--------------------+------------------------------------------------------- The athena-renumber script writes out the line
{{{
127.0.1.1 $fqdn $hostname
}}}
to /etc/hosts. Neither of these variables are set.
That said, in the context of athena-renumber, since we have a static IP,
there's no need to set an /etc/hosts entry for 127.0.1.1. Freshly-
installed hosts have a line there for the actual static IP address, for
instance.
