I have run sup and recompiled the kernel and all binaries successfully.  
Still when I log into my machine from a remote machine and run 'ls' my 
session hangs.  Maybe it is something simpler, like incorrect permissions 
on my pty?  Any help is much appreciated.

Correction: I unaliased ls from 'ls -aF' to just 'ls' and it works.  Now 
it seems that 'ls -a' does not work along with 'more' and 'cat'.  Except 
they all work on the console.
