On 7 Jan 2004 at 13:30, I spoke, thus:

I've now done this, and - behold - it all works fine (cursors, delete key 
if you press it as backspace, pageup/pagedn) but *before* sysinstall - 
afterward, inside sysinstall, if I select the ANSI terminal option (1), it 
reverts to its previous behaviour.  It is worth noting, though, that 
hyperTerminal was set up as an ANSI terminal during the hole time!

Does this help?  Any ideas with this extra info?

Cheers,
Sabahattin
