how to run 2 separate programs in MINI2440 terminal

adam
could anyone can tell me how can i run 2 individual c program in ARM
terminal window from my host computer ....??? here i can't open 2 separate
terminals of ARM board because i am using serial port to see the ARM file
system . 

so once i run a ./a.out program , it keeps blocking the terminal window
till the end of the prog execution . so i could not run my 2nd program . 
plz tell me the proper way of executing multiple process on embedded board
..

hi sushant 

this method of execution of program works on pc linux terminal but it is
not working in friendly ARM board . i tried this method before . there is
even very big problem came when i executed the program using ./a.out & . 

the problem was like neither the program run in background nor i could
stopped it . i could not even stopped using ctrl+c key . i had to reboot my
board that time . i think there would be some other techniques for this
issue. 

so plz let me know if any other method we have ....
