BASH issue

[Carmen Badea]

Hello everyone,

Thanks for your replies.
So now I have this CD of development tools that are supposed to work with my
board and BASH is among them.
I have tried to install it using the rpm command in the BusyBox v1.2.1 and
this is what I get:

/home/carmen # ./busybox rpm -i bash-ppc_4xx-3.0-31_1.ppc.rpm
rpm: Cannot create symlink from ./bin/sh to 'bash': File exists
10206 blocks
rpm: unknown group name: root

After this I checked the /bin directory and now there is a file called
"bash"  in the directory, which when I try to run it, gives me this error:

/bin # bash
bash: error while loading shared libraries: libtermcap.so.2: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Any ideas as to why this is happening and how I could fix it?
I apologize if I am asking some obvious questions.I am no Linux expert...

thank you,
Carmen

No, it isn't.  I'm doing a new shell for toybox, but I'm not working on the
version in busybox anymore after Bruce took all the fun out of it.  I'd
recommend just removing the one in busybox; it's fairly useless and I'm not
adding to it.
