i'm using 4.1-STABLE so root's shell is csh which is a hard link to
tcsh IINM, in my .cshrc, i have towards the end:

if (-f /usr/local/bin/zsh) then
        exec /usr/local/bin/zsh -l
endif

i give credit on this one to my mentors in IRC, which makes sense if
ever i drop down to single mode.

| 
| Over the last few months I have become quite used to zsh, and have
| set the root account on one of my boxes to use it. However when a
| friend of mine saw this he seemed to think it a very bad thing,
| noting that zsh is not in the root partition etc. My question is,
| is this really a problem? can't I just run sh if the need arises?
| 
| thanks for any insight,
| Robert
