When I check /dev I found that I do not have the tty/pty pair so I
copy some from baslinux. When I run ile, it does not complain anymore
BUT there is no command history when I press up/down arrow.

I do not know how to use makenod. How do you know what major or minor
numbers to use and is that all you have to do? Is there permission
problem?

There is no documentation for the programs. I wonder what does all the
flags and arguments mean.
