The problem is with network configuration most likely. I fixed it
on my machine, (just one machine to start and loopback network
only) by setting the following config files up in /etc:

/etc/hosts127.0.0.1       localhost pulsar.kahana.home pulsar

/etc/resolv.conf
domain kahana.home
nameserver 127.0.0.1

/etc/networks
loopback        127.0.0.0

running cache only nameserver.

The console now gives me a nice prompt.

Now for a real network and some real programming!
