All,

I finally got around to -- I thought :) -- completing my inclusion of bash-static as a usable shell.

It works as an available shell in 'adduser', but when I tried to use it as a recovery shell (see attached .odt), I ran into a problem. My fist pass was to add /bin/stbash to the end of the toor line in master.passwd, but that didn't change it even after a reboot.

Next, I discovered that logging in as toor and issuing:

# chsh -s /bin/stbash, but that didn't work successfully because it changed my root shell to the static-linked bash as well. I quickly changed it back!

Two other commands work as expected, and track the issue: 'echo $0' and 'echo $SHELL'

I don't see where SHELL is set, or $0. Are these in one of the rc files?

<whoops> What did I miss?
