Xen users - Oct 2010 - setting hostname in xen config .xml file

Hello All:

I am trying to set the hostname of VMs at boot time and banging my head 
against the wall.  I am using

virsh create xen-config.xml

to boot a Scientific Linux 5.5 image.  I have gone through the libvirt 
domain xml format at

http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsResources

 and I don''t see anywhere to set the hostname in there.  I am using 
pygrub for the bootloader and noticed the  "bootloader_args" element.
Can I pass an argument to the kernel at boot to set the hostname?  
Nothing I have tried seems to work.  Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

David
