Hello,

You can install nano by executing the following commands:

opkg update
opkg install nano
cp /usr/lib/libncurses.so /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5

I'd use ln instead of cp to save flash space

ln -s /usr/lib/libncurses.so /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5

Is it also possible for the RUT955 ?
by anonymous
Yes, the same logic applies.

On freshly flashed rut240 (from 1.11.3 to 1.14) the above instructions didn't work.
On my router ncurses are version 6, not 5, so it needed TWO symlinks: summarizing

opkg update
opkg install nano

and then

ln -s /usr/lib/libncurses.so /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5

ln -s /usr/lib/libncurses.so.6 /usr/lib/libncurses.so

Hope this helps.
