Asusming you mean history in the shell on MicroBlaze, you must do a few thinngs.

First, disable the default shell:

menuconfig / user settings -> core applications, select "other" as the shell type

Then, enable the busybox minix shell

busybox->shell->minix

and then set the options you want for command history, tab completion and so on

Save and exit menuconfig.

Delete uClinux-dist/romfs/bin/sh to strip out the old "sh" application.

Run "make useronly" twice (two goes needed to pick up changes in busybox config :(

Then "make romfs image"

Boot/download and you're done.

Regards,

John
