If one logs in to a FreeBSD system from a Linux platform, the terminal type is set to linux which is compatible with a vt100. As soon as I run sysinstall, things go to the dogs very fast. It is as if there was no terminal emulation in effect at all. Other things such as the shell and vi work. If you run sysinstall from the installation CDROM, it works well. What should I be doing to get proper terminal behavior in sysinstall? I did try setting the $TERM variable to vt100 and a read of the environment showed this did take effect, but the display filled with garbage along with blocks of text as soon as I ran sysinstall. Thank you.
