Hey guys, thanks for your answers. it helped a lot!
here is what I did: 1st i used putty as a terminal. As for the uClinux distribution i included the minix shell (msh) and "cttyhack". in Busybox Settings ---> Busybox Library Tuning i added all the options i desired (like Command line editing, history, Tab completion,...) basically the answer is in this link (thanks Domingos Goncalves): http://www.mail-archive.com/uclinux-dev@uclinux.org/msg08513.html the problem (described in the link) is that the shell is run on /dev/console (to see where shell is running enter "tty") but you want it to run on /dev/ttySx in order to have a controlling terminal provided. enter "setsid cttyhack msh". this command will automatically reopen stdio to /dev/ttyS0 and start the msh shell. now commandline history, tab completion, etc should work. hope this helped.
