When I run /stand/sysinstall as root, on ttyv0, the session starts up on VTY2 (ttyv1, I believe). I switch to VTY2 using alt-f2, and find that the arrow and function keys don't work. I have to switch back to VTY1 using alt-f1, then cntl-C, then back to VTY2 to see a DEBUG message that control is passing back to VTY1, then I go back to VTY1 where a second cntl-C returns me to the # prompt. My TERM is set to cons25, the default. I tried changing this to vt100, same results. Any further suggestions? Kevin --- Kevin McQuiggin VE7ZD mcquiggi@sfu.ca
