It will failed elsewhere later because:
- softwares in /usr/bin, /bin; /sbin don't implement all GNU options
expected by commands in /root/bin.
- some softwares not in /usr/bin, /bin will still fail to load.

The whole PATH=/root... is brittle and IMO a disaster in waiting. If a
casper script needs a command not in the initrd image then it must
chroot to /root.
