Summary:                    Root $PATH doesn't include /sbin
Description: 
As the summary says, the env variable PATH doesn't include "/sbin"
directory, to invoke any "modprobe" or "lspci" command you have to put in
the full path. Most important, some scripts like genzaptelconf, don't use
full paths and fail when they try to invoke rmmod and insmod.
I tried on 3 different installation of AsteriskNOW and still it's there.

When using `su` to become root, you MUST use a - at the end, like `su -`. 
You will not get a correct path otherwise.
