Evidently I messed something up on install because I am now unable to
login as root.  I get :

login: /bin/csh: Permission denied

I am certain I am typing the password correct and I am wondering why the
system is trying to throw me into csh. Wouldn't it just give me login
incorrect if my password were bad.  anyway since I can't login as root I
can't do a whole lot to correct this.  If there is no easy way to correct
this the nI can just reinstall but I would like to be able to fix it w/o
the reinstall.  I am still able to login as the userr that I set up during
the install.  I glad at least I did that.
