Ok thanks for the information.

The account will pe also be preserved across upgrades or is it necessary to
reinstall it on every upgrade?

Kind regards

root (old history, but still valid) needs a shell that's statically
built (e.g. no linked libraries). In case a library disappears or in the
default *nix/*bsd distro the /usr partition doesn't mount, you can still
log in and attempt a repair.

As mentioned, add in another account manually, with your preferred
shell, and you should be ok.
