Safely change the Solaris superuser login shell

The default login shell for the Solaris superuser root is /sbin/sh, a statically linked Bourne shell. This shell is not dependent on any other files to run.

If the root login shell is changed from /sbin/sh to a non-static shell, root will not be able to log into the system if certain filesystems cannot mount. A simple addition to root’s /.profile will change the shell safely.
