I'm new to FreeBSD but been using UNIX for about 6 months. I just installed my first FreeBSD system after fighting with the signal 11 bug for about 3 weeks. When I installed it I wanted to use the bash shell at start-up and typed it incorrectly as bsh. Obviously when I login I keep getting errors and returns to the login prompt. I luckily didn't do the same for root so I can get into the system. I tried changing the prompt command in /etc/passwd but when I login as my normal user it still gives the "no such file" for /bin/bsh Is there somewhere else I need to change this to get a shell prompt????
