I know this is kinda unrelated to what this forum is all about, but I really have looked around in google. I have created a custom filesystem (for montavista linux) and as far as vi and clear goes, "linux unknown terminal type" is displayed. there is no /etc/termcap or /usr/lib/terminfo but an /usr/share/terminfo/... is found... any ideas on this one?
