Hi,
   can next FreeBSD installs bash as default shell instead of csh? it seems if you default install csh as default one, the system is inconsistency, because csh can't execute 
all scripts in FreeBSD, your scripts are all written in sh shell, bash can execute them without problem, but csh is incompatible with sh, it can not execute sh scripts, this is very nasty.

David
