Yes, I did that; I get:
$ ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1: Resolver Error 0 (no error)
Usage: ifconfig [-a] [-i] [-v] interface
[inet address]
[hw] [ax25 address]
[metric NN] [mtu NN]
[trailers] [-trailers]
[arp] [-arp]
[netmask aa.bb.cc.dd]
[dstaddr aa.bb.cc.dd]
[mem_start NN] [io_addr NN] [irq NN]
[[-] broadcast [aa.bb.cc.dd]]
[[-]pointopoint [aa.bb.cc.dd]]
[up] [down] ...
I have no idea what "Resolver error 0" is, nor why ifconfig thinks
that is an invalid command line....
$ ping 127.0.0.1
ping: unknown protocol icmp.
I think I need to be running inetd to implement the ping protocol, and
so far I have been unable to find a PowerPC image of inetd.
My /etc/protocols has icmp listed (copied from a working i386 linux).
I may have more serious errors, like incompatible libraries....
