It will prompt you for a shell and you can enter /bin/sh.  There may
be other side effects to look out for, though.

Are you doing enough work as root to warrant changing the shell?  If so,
have you considered exec'ing tcsh from your .login if you're not running
tcsh and /usr is mounted?  Or creating a second root user with a
different default shell?
