Changing the root shell doesn't hurt. But you have to install your shell
static. I use the bash-static from packages, and hadn't any problems. I
think that booting in single and cleaning some trash, might solve the
problem. Also you might want to consider installing the bash-static.
As others have said there is no reason to change root's shell. And to
expand upon that it's good practice to KISS. It's much easier to
avoid problems and to fix them when they happen if as little is
changed to root and the default system files as possible.
