However, do not use bash (or any other dynamically linked executable) as root's shell. Leave root's shell as /sbin/sh or your box will not boot.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

Thanks a lot!
Once I've changed root's shell into bash and had some difficult time - however this has been valuable experience, thanks for remark!:)
any comments on installation?

There have been Innumerable people who have helped me. Of course, I've managed to piss most of them off.
