Just change back the shell to the standard dialog shell,
which is the C shell /bin/csh. If you intendedly want to
use a different shell when working as root, consider using
the toor account and change the shell of toor. Do not change
the shell of root.
Login as any user. Then:
% su root
Password:
# chsh
... change back to csh ...
# exit
% exit
Now you can login as root again.
Note that you missed the leading / in the BASH name, as
the login message states:
> login: usr/local/bin/bash: No such file or directory
^
The correct path is /usr/local/bin/bash. And you can use
this path for toor, no problem at all.
