The ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" should definitely work, I'm not sure
why it doesn't. Try putting whatever works for you manually into there.
Maybe you have a missing network backend script somewhere in rc.d? Try
running mergemaster again.

Also, sometimes it's easier to test a network change in /etc/rc.conf by
running "sh /etc/netstart". That usually reloads network configuration
without the need for rebooting.
