Not sure if this fixes it, but above is your problem.  Your running just
"su" instead of "su -" (include the space then dash after the su
letters), such as below..

[mike@scrappy ~]$ su -
Password: 
[root@scrappy ~]#

Your not getting root's permissions/path when you use just su.

See if that works,
