Hi all. 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????

Thanks,

John
