Thank mike, rebuilding bash on the target fixed the issue. Strange how i could login and use bash as my shell, everything seemed OK, but i guess not. Happen to know if there are a lot of other packages with that signal list issue? My target CPU is only 266 mhz arm so of course when i can, i try and cross compile on the faster i686.
