Hi !
Probably your /etc/shells is missing for some reason (I think it is
missing in a current base-passwd package release but fixed now).
/etc/shells should look like this:
# /etc/shells: valid login shells
/bin/ash
/bin/bash
/bin/csh
/bin/sh
/usr/bin/es
/usr/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/rc
/usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh
Greetings,
Christian

What's the railroad to me ?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows,
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.
(Henry David Thoreau)
