Damn. Silly me, you can't do it this way yet. The correct thing is to:

o delete /etc/HOSTNAME and /etc/NETADDRS
o run /etc/newunix bnet (and nfs if wanted)
o run /etc/autoconfig -v -u -I -S /etc/startup
o reboot
o then answer the questions it asks during reboot to initialize the hostname
  and network data.

sorry for the mistake.
