i'd recommend the following instead:

This will give the current working directory, followed by a $ if non-root
or a # if root. In either case, a space will separate the prompt from your

You may want to read the Bash Prompt HOWTO, which should be located in the
/usr/share/doc/HOWTO/ directory if you have one of the doc-linux packages
installed.
