Sorry, for barging in at this point.
Do I understand correctly that you want bash to be your shell?
If so, you can run (as root), the command
chsh <username>

where <username> should all be replaced by your login  name.

This will give you a vi screen where you change your login shell
to whatever you want it to be.

After that , you need to make sure that the rc and profile files that 
are executed
by your chosen shell, export the variable
SHELL=<your shell that you chose in the previous command above>

for example:

export SHELL=/bin/bash

HTH.
