You don't need a shell.  A/UX, if configured well, does all the ifconfig stuff 
and all that at boot time.

First thing you should do is to edit the /etc/inittab.  Follow the directions
in the file itself, but also change the initdefault line(2nd line??) where it
says initdefault:s: to initdefault:2:.  That puts you in multiuser mode at boot
time.  Now do this:

	/etc/newunix nfs
	/etc/newunix bnet
	/etc/newunix toolbox
	/etc/ifconfig -v -o /unix -S /startup  (not sure of this line, check
						your install/admin manual)
This would make a new kernel that supports nfs, bnet and the toolbox.  Before 
you do this, make sure you undo all the stuff you did manually(like changing the
the ae0 file) since when you reboot the machine it will prompt you for info, and
it will do it cleaner and better(we don't have any of the delays you are talking
about, so something must be wrong).

Good luck.
