FreeBSD 7.0 comes with the user root with start up shell /bin/csh
As normal user I use bash (/usr/local/bin/bash installed)
I would prefer to have bash also when working as root (su).
Of course I can do
# bash
[root ~]# 
or I could change the startup shell in /etc/passwd, but would that be a wise
thing to do or not?
