root's PATH

[Jeff Hornsberger]

Hi, I'm having some weirdness happening with root on my system. In
root's .bashrc file I set his PATH with:
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
export PATH
This works fine when he is just working in a gnome-terminal or
something, but when he works in the console, $HOME/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
don't get added to his PATH. Could someone tell me why this is? Doesn't
.bashrc get read in console mode for some reason? Thanks. -Jeff
