ae can't open terminal
Hi All,
I'm trying to create a rescue disk for myself using ae as an editor on
the rescue disk. I compiled and tested ae and it seemed to work fine on
my development system so I mounted the rootdisk that I'm creating as a
loop device:
#mount -o loop /tmp/fs /mnt
and chrooted to /mnt
#chroot /mnt
Now ae says it can't open the terminal when it was working fine before.
# ae
Error opening terminal: xterm.
I also tried this from tty1 instead of through X and I got basically the
same error:
# ae
Error opening terminal: Linux.
I'm using busybox as a shell and basic system and I've also installed
the following libraries:
# ls lib
ld-2.2.3.so libc-2.2.3.so libncurses.so.5
ld-linux.so.2 libc.so.6 libncurses.so.5.2
I didn't install slang because "#ldd ae" returned:
libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x4001f000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4005f000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
I also tried adding libslang but the results were the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy
P.S. I did create the filesystem by hand. Could I be missing a device
for the display or something?
