/sbin/ip, not /etc/ip Those inet6 addresses beginning with ff02 are link-local addresses. Those are automatically configured on a link simply by the link being up.
Something is failing to configure your interfaces' ipv4 settings. The culprit is almost certainly somewhere in one of these places, its lack of being in these places it part of your problem: /etc/conf.d/net /etc/init.d/net.* /etc/runlevels/*/net.* Otherwise, try those find/grep lines I offered.
