Pasted from the Note in question:

"You must create a valid /root/.bashrc file to provide a modified path 
for the super-user."

Therefore, to your question of "what" to add to root's .bashrc - it's "a 
modified path." You know, since root generally has additional dirs in 
its PATH (such as /sbin and /usr/sbin).
