I'm not sure this command is going to work. I think the "--login: option
is going to force the system to try and load the shell defined in the
passwd file *before* executing the command specified by "-c". su will
fail because the passwd file entry for root is munged. It might be worth
trying just "su" without any options; that might promote the ID to
superuser without trying to load a new shell. If that works, Ryan should
be able to edit and fix the passwd file.
