Try this and see if it can help you:
---------------------[snip]------------------------
#~/.inputrc
# Costumize the different keys for Console or Xterm.
#
# We're on an xterm
$if term=xterm
DEL: delete-char
$else
# we're on a console
set metaflag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line
"\e[3~": delete-char
"\e[4~": end-of-line
DEL: backward-delete-char
$endif
--------------------[snip]--------------------
I hope this can help you.
