oops,
10.10.10.0 != 10.10.0.0
according to routing tables, ifconfing should give you an address like 10.10.10.x
is this correct?

-- Good observation, error on my part.

I corrected;
        omega:/local# cat netset
        #
        #  emergency network setup
        ifconfig                        \
            eth0      10.10.10.109      \
            netmask  255.255.0.0        \
            broadcast 10.10.255.255

        ifconfig                        \
            localhost 127.0.0.1         \
            netmask  255.255.0.0        \
            broadcast 10.10.255.255

        route add default gw 10.10.0.1

This fixes routing (Thanks!), but localhost is still broken.
and ifup...

        omega:/local# route
        Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface localnet * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 10.10.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
        omega:/local# ifup -a
        /etc/network/interfaces: Function not implemented
        ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"
        omega:/local#

THe problem came in because trying to work around the broken ifup, I made this manual setup, which I did wrong.

SO,
 1) what's wrong with ifup,
 2) how to manually add localhost.

Thanks.
