Hi,

I get this error whenever logging in from the console... unfortunately this
prevents me from using any tool using some graphical display such as "ee"...

The TERM variable is set and the cons25 entry does exist in /etc/termcap on the
MFS. Trying another type of terminal (e.g. vt100 or ansi) does not work either :
ee always responds "cannot open terminal xx".

I also have the problem with the predefined systems (router, bridge,...) so my
customization does not seem to be the cause. I don't have the problem on the
FreeBSD system I am using to generate the PicoBSD systems.

Does that ring a bell to someone ?

I did not have this problem on an old floppy image I downloaded (picobsd version
0.41 I seem to remember).

Is it a bug in the 4.5R version ? Am I missing something obvious ? I am rather
new to FreeBSD.

Thanks in advance for any hint.

Pierre
