You need to create it (copy it there) first:
cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop ~/Desktop
Then install and run "gnome-tweak-tool" package:
yum -y install gnome-tweak-tool
When using GNOME Shell, run gnome-tweak-tool, enable "Icons on Desktop".
Double-click the gnome-terminal icon on desktop to start a terminal.
After a reboot (at least here), the terminal starts in / dir instead
of $HOME.
