    Something I found long ago was adding this line to your root's .cshrc

    [ -x /usr/local/bin/bash ] && exec /usr/local/bin/bash

    That way you don't have to mess with changing the shell, and yet you get
    bash on login.

    This make it sound like you find it very bothersome to login and type
    'bash' (or whatever), to give yourself the shell you want. Is that
    so?
