Bash promt for root?
 

Hello,
I can change my bash shell prompt by editing the file
in my home directory. I just define a variable PS1.

that's ok, but how can I do the same for the root?
what file should I edit?

:newbie:

/root/.bashrc or /etc/profile (some distro's use: /etc/bash.bashrc)

Your current prompt for root (= UID 0) is set in /etc/profile (or /etc/bash.bashrc)

If you go for the .bashrc solution and /root/.bashrc does not excist, you safely can create it.
