Hello,
A simple addition of "-" to "su" will do the trick
$ su -
which essentially will make the shell a login shell
For more information
$ man su

Subject: console as root-user
Hi,
As you may have noticed, when you start a console as non-root user and
then you switch to root with "su" command, you are still unable to
execute a lot of commands, as "ntsysv" or "iptables" i think could
because of selinux, but anyway in the computer i have i start a Konsole
(KDE) as root and problem solved.
I have another PC only with Gnome, how do i start a console as root
directly without switching users?
i had to use this "trick"
ssh -l root 127.0.0.1 to have access to all the commands.
help me please.
greetings,
Guillermo Garron
