Hello,
There is now a feature in the USB key to update the hostname. After you install Ubermix, press 5 to go to expert options, then choose option 5 from the expert menu. You can then type in a hostname and reboot.

Reset the device after you make the change. Your manual changes from before are still in effect. See
http://ubermix.org/basics.html
for instructions.
