Hi, I did have the same problem this morning on Hardy... Changed /home/root to /root and it worked
Yesterday I had problem with my root user, had an expire account notice when trying to run terminal as root. I defined a password manually in user-groups and the expiration notice disappeared... Maybe that changed the /home/root path?
