I have installed ubuntu minimal(mini.iso) on my vm. I then used recovery mode to login as root and create an account with useradd -m admin
and then set a password with passwd admin
.
When I login on the new account, instead of the normal prompt I only see a $
sign. If I try to tab-complete a command or file name it prints a normal tab. If I try to use the arrow keys it prints ^[[A
, ^[[B
, ^[[C
or ^[[D
. Also, ls
no longer adds colors.
None of these problems were in recovery mode. How can I fix this?
