As I said, it works, but you just forgot to modifiy /etc/hosts :
127.0.1.1 ibm-p8-kvm-03-guest-02.virt.pnr.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com
Yes this is broken in several images including the Ubuntu ones.
It took me a long time to work out why it happens. It turns out that it's because qemu uses 10.0.2.15 as a default address while installing, and that happens to reverse to some random machine on Red Hat's network. When guests install they try to self-determine their hostname from their IP address, so this happens.
There's no a great deal I can do about this, but you can set your own hostname using the --hostname option.
Is there perhaps a way to block or alter the DNS resolution that QEMU is seeing for 10.0.2.15. eg What if you add '10.0.2.15 localhost.localdomain' to /etc/hosts on your *host build* machine ?
