The default bash on KT is a symbolic link to bushbox, and it's not very comfortable to use, such as no readline, no reverse-search, etc.
So I've compiled one for KT and it works well. If you are interested, maybe you can have a try.
--EDIT--
Here is the source:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-4.2.tar.gz
and you may need the patch from
here.
Patch:
I compiled it with:
Code:
$ patch < m.patch
$ CC=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc ./configure --host=arm-linux --target=arm-linux --enable-history --enable-readline --without-bash-malloc
