Using the configuration file /etc/config.scm it is fairly straight forward
to change shells for a given user account on GuixSD 0.14.0, such as using:

(operating system
   (users (cons (user-account
                         (name "user")
                         ....
                         (shell "/run/current-system/profile/bin/zsh")))))

, but for root this is impossible. Is it possible this feature could be
added?

I just realized it=E2=80=99s actually possible: if you add an account with
UID=C2=A00, then that account is the root account.

So you can write:

  (operating-system
    ;; =E2=80=A6
    (users (cons (user-account
                   (name "this-can-be-root-or-something-else")
                   (uid 0)
                   ;; =E2=80=A6
                   (shell (file-append zsh "/bin/zsh")))
                 =E2=80=A6)))

=E2=80=A6 and you get a root account with the chosen name and shell.

Does it work for you?

I=E2=80=99ve clarified the situation:

=E2=80=98cons=E2=80=99 adds an element to a list, so it takes two arguments:

  (cons account list)

as in:

  (cons (user-account =E2=80=A6) %base-user-accounts)

HTH!

(thought I had CC'ed the group with my last comment but unfortunately gmail
doesn't do this by default, sorry)

Ya I do have %base-user-accounts in my config file here is what I had for
user accounts in full:

  (users (cons
              (user-account
                (name "root")
                (uid 0)
                (group "root")
                (supplementary-groups '("home-directory"))
                (home-directory "/root")
                (shell (file-append zsh "/bin/zsh")))
               (user-account
                (name "fusion809")
                (comment "Brenton Horne")
                (group "users")
                (supplementary-groups '("wheel" "netdev"
                                        "audio" "video"))
                (home-directory "/home/fusion809")
(shell "/run/current-system/profile/bin/zsh"))
               %base-user-accounts))

guessing the problem here is that I have two user-account fields?

Yes, =E2=80=9Ccons=E2=80=9D takes a single item (its first argument) and pr=
epends it to a
list (its second argument).  You can use =E2=80=9Ccons*=E2=80=9D here, whic=
h prepends
more than one thing to a list.

That's correct.  Either use:

(cons (user-account ...)
      (cons (user-account ...)
            %base-user-accounts))

Or

(cons* (user-account ...) (user-account ...) %base-user-accounts)

HTH,

Alex

Right, if you are adding more than one element to %base-user-accounts,
you'll need to use cons* instead of cons.

(users (cons* (user-account
                (name "root")
		...)
              (user-account
                (name "fusion809")
                ...)
              %base-user-accounts))

Here =E2=80=98cons=E2=80=99 is given three arguments.  You should use =E2=
=80=98cons*=E2=80=99 instead.
To do that you=E2=80=99ll also need to add this line to the top of your fil=
e:

  (use-modules (srfi srfi-1))  ;for 'cons*'

HTH,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
