OK,

in hosts you define your loopback as localhost or localhost.my.domain .
You did not specify a zone-file for my.domain .
Now i'll assume you want to have your own domain, say "lining.priv"
Then maybe you want a second machine in the near future to be connected
to your first, so let's make the thing a little more complete and
define a private network for the future.
Now i'll give your machine a name and an adress:
   machine-name: song
   private domain: lining.priv
   private adress: 10.1.1.1
Now your hosts-file should look like this:
------------------------------------------
  127.0.0.1	localhost.lining.priv	localhost
  10.1.1.1	song.lining.priv	song
Your resolv.conf should look like this:
---------------------------------------
  domain	lining.priv
  nameserver	10.1.1.1
Your named.boot looks like this:
--------------------------------
  ;       $Id: named.boot,v 1.3 1995/03/23 08:43:02 rgrimes Exp $
  ;       From: @(#)named.boot    5.1 (Berkeley) 6/30/90

  ; boot file for secondary name server
  ; Note that there should be one primary entry for each SOA record.

  ; example sortlist config:
  ; sortlist 128.3.0.0

  directory       /etc/namedb

  ; type    domain                source host/file       backup file

  cache     .	named.root
  primary   0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA  localhost.rev
  primaty   1.1.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA   10.1.1.rev
  primary   lining.priv           lining.priv.zone

  ; example secondary server config:
  ; secondary Berkeley.EDU  128.32.130.11 128.32.133.1 ucbhosts.bak
  ; secondary 32.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA 128.32.130.11 128.32.133.1
ucbhosts.rev.bak

  ; example primary server config:
  ; primary  Berkeley.EDU         ucbhosts
  ; primary  32.128.IN-ADDR.ARPA  ucbhosts.rev
  ; primary 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa    pz/127.0.0
  ; primary localhost               pz/localhost

Above i've assumed you want to have the zone- and rev-files in your
/etc/namedb-directory.
Next you need the localhost.rev file (BTW, why did you not use
--------------------------------------------------------------
"make-localhost" in /etc/namedb for this ?):
--------------------------------------------
  ;       $Id: PROTO.localhost.rev,v 1.1 1995/03/21 16:33:44 wollman Exp
$
  ;
  ; This file is automatically edited by the `make-localhost' script in
  ; the /etc/namedb directory.
  ;

  @       IN      SOA     song.lining.priv. root.song.lining.priv.  (
                                1       ;serial
                                360000  ;refresh
                                300     ;retry
                                3600000 ;expire
                                360000 )        ;minimum
        IN      NS      song.lining.priv.
        in      hinfo   PPro-200 FreeBSD-2.1.5R

  1       IN      PTR     localhost.lining.priv.

Next you need the 10.1.1.rev file (i've just copied the comments from
---------------------------------------------------------------------
above):
-------
  ;       $Id: PROTO.localhost.rev,v 1.1 1995/03/21 16:33:44 wollman Exp
$
  ;
  ; This file is automatically edited by the `make-localhost' script in
  ; the /etc/namedb directory.
  ;

  @       IN      SOA     song.lining.priv. root.song.lining.priv.  (
                                1       ;serial
                                360000  ;refresh
                                300     ;retry
                                3600000 ;expire
                                360000 )        ;minimum
        IN      NS      song.lining.priv.
        in      hinfo   PPro-200 FreeBSD-2.1.5R

  1       IN      PTR     song.lining.priv.

Next you need the lining.priv.zone file (again comments are copied from
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
above):
-------
  ;       $Id: PROTO.localhost.rev,v 1.1 1995/03/21 16:33:44 wollman Exp
$
  ;
  ; This file is automatically edited by the `make-localhost' script in
  ; the /etc/namedb directory.
  ;

  @       IN      SOA     song.lining.priv. root.song.lining.priv.  (
                                1       ;serial
                                360000  ;refresh
                                300     ;retry
                                3600000 ;expire
                                360000 )        ;minimum
        IN      NS      song.lining.priv.
        in      hinfo   PPro-200 FreeBSD-2.1.5R

  song       IN      A     10.1.1.1
  www-cache  IN      CNAME song.lining.priv.
  ftp        IN      CNAME song.lining.priv.
  ftp-cache  IN      CNAME song.lining.priv.
  localhost  IN      A     127.0.0.1

Now create this files (localhost.rev, 10.1.1.rev and lining.priv.zone)
in /etc/namedb. Don't forget to set your hostname (song.lining.priv)
in /etc/sysconfig. Send named a HUP. You may want to update your
named.root file but i do not believe that there will be any changes.
That's all. This should get you running.
For further details have a look at "DNS and BIND", Paul Albitz and
