Why can't I set PS1?



Hello,

this is plain vanilla 

	/usr/bin/zsh (ZSH_VERSION=3.0.5)

on equally plain vanilla 

	Linux version 2.0.36 (root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) 
	(gcc version 2.7.2.3) #2 Tue Dec 8 14:58:04 MET 1998

Why can't I set PS1, eg:

hukriede@pfiesteria:/home/hukriede > PS1=xxx
hukriede@pfiesteria:/home/hukriede > echo $PS1
%n@%m:/home/hukriede > 
hukriede@pfiesteria:/home/hukriede > 

???

Many thanks, greetings, W.
