I'm using a Debian AMI that I built from scratch. Whether I use my own 
Debian AMI or an existing published Debian AMI, I always notice the 
following errors from the system console log when the instance boots:

hostname: the specified hostname is invalid
startpar: service(s) returned failure: hostname.sh ... 

hostname.sh is an init.d script that Debian uses to set the hostname from 
/etc/hostname, which doesn't exist and is not used in any Debian AMIs.

How can I disable or remove hostname.sh? I've tried to remove it, but then 
I just get errors that hostname.sh could not be found, because it's 
symlinked from somewhere else.

The above errors don't affect the operation of the instance, but it's just 
annoying to seem them on each boot.
