Changing Login shell

Using tazpkg I installed the zsh expecting that I will have to do some changes after that. What happened was that the zsh became imediately the current shell and everything got wild. The sytem frozed. I tried to fix it, but after several crash, it was better to installed again from the begining.

When I installed the bash shell using tazpkg, it was ok, but now I want to make bash my login shell. I still have sh link to busybox. I do experiment a lot and I want to try different shells with slitaz. What will be your sugestion?  I will be trying with ash, ksh and others. How about using bash or any other compatible shell as the system shell?

I'll appreciated your sugestions.

Thanks
