Why is this not a good idea? The only reason I can think of it that you want your root shell on the root hard drive. As many system use a separate partition for /usr and that bash installs to /usr/local/bin per default I can see how that can cause troubles. But are there any other reasons? Unstability in bash? Unexpected behaivor causing more harm in a root shell? On Sun, Mar 01, 2009 at 03:50:29PM +0100, Sniper wrote: > I heard that changing root shell to bash is not good idea
