What happened?

The default hostname auto-populated under "Your computer's name" seems to be nonsensical in 23.10(.1):

What was expected?

The legacy installer of 23.10 gets it right:

Steps to reproduce

Just try to install Ubuntu 23.10(.1) from USB.

Additional context

It looks like the solutions to #338 and #2085 may be the cause.

product names in the 'Version' field instead.

This fixes the default hostname being nonsensical on non-Lenovo systems.
