Trying to turn it into a stand alone box but when disconnected from network gets stuck with following error message and box won't continue booting.

Error:

The error message you posted shows the system is hanging on nfs mounts. This can prevent it from booting. Edit /etc/rc.config.d/netconf to shutoff the network cards and in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf you can shut off nfs services. Make sure you have the hostname set in /etc/hosts and /etc/nsswitch.conf has files before dns.

This should do it.
