Hi Legacy, If you want to assume root role after logging in, you should run commands that need root privilege with pfexec prefixed to it. If you want to login as root, then do the following,
# rolemod -K /type=normal root/ Type the above command once you are logged in as your normal user and assume root role via pfexec bash. This make the root a normal user and allows you to login as root through the gdm login. A logout/login after typing the command would do.
