Set as default

To set zsh as default shell for your user, edit /etc/passwd (from /bin/bash to /bin/zsh)

There are two ways:

Running this command:

  • chsch $USER
  • Input your password
  • Input /bin/zsh

Modifying /etc/passwd

  • Change your user in /etc/passwd to /bin/zsh instead of /bin/bash
  • Find line containing your username

  • Change the end of the line From: ...:/bin/bash

    To: ...:/bin/zsh
