help! 5.1 doesn't do the rc thing?

OMG.
I did it (the 5.1 update), and it went flawlessly until the reboot.
I read /usr/src/UPDATING! It said that the old rc system was going away,
but it would keep all your old files.

So anyways, does anyone have a link to info about how the heck I start
stuff in 5.1?

Most important:
-my lo0 interface doesn't have the 127.0.0.1 address.. it just comes up
with no addy.
-rc.conf didn't get run :( no named, no nothing :(
-my firewall rules (rc.firewall) and sysctl.conf didn't seem to be read.

Links, hints appreciated.
