system bootup hangs for a min on configuring network.
then i get a Gnome error when i login: could not connect to . gnome may not work properly. try adding to etc/hosts
i think may have deleted my local host name by accident.
when i try to use sudo to alter hosts file, i get
sudo: unable to lookup via gethostbyname()

what do i do now?
