Do I understand correctly that you want bash to be your shell? If so, you can run (as root), the command chsh where should all be replaced by your login name. This will give you a vi screen where you change your login shell to whatever you want it to be. After that , you need to make sure that the rc and profile files that are executed by your chosen shell, export the variable SHELL= for example: export SHELL=/bin/bash HTH.
