Sigh. If an admin cannot handle /bin/sh long enough to get /usr mounted,
they have no business being an admin. And Yes, I am a 100% bash user
(I'm also the guy that brought you tcsh in the base system)
Bash is my shell, and toor's shell. When I want bash single user, I
answer the question of which shell with "/usr/local/bin/bash" as my / and
/usr are the same (there! problem solved for the guy that started this
thread). On machines I deal with that have seperate / and /usr, I take
the default of /bin/sh and then do the:
mount /usr
/usr/local/bin/bash
dance. Now that isn't such a hard dance now is it? I live it, it can be
done.
