Re: [PATCH 2 of 2] Add config shell override option


Bart,
All,

I'd rather select the shell to be used in a choice menu, like:

"Shell to use as CONFIG_SHELL:"
   "sh (system shell)"
   "ash"
   "bash"
   "Custom shell"
     "Path to custom shell:"

I've already done this in a local branch I'll be pushing later tonight...

OTOH, if we do know that some shells do not work, they why leave such
an option, and why not forcibly use the shell we know works ?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
