I don't understand how this is an answer to the question. There is
always a root account, you can't create one. I think he just wants it
to run ".bashrc" at login which it isn't (?) for some reason.
It's possible that he's using su, not su -. The first simply changes
your userid to 0, while the second does a complete login, including
running root's .bashrc and changing your pwd to /root.
