I am familar with RH6 and the .profile (.bash_profile) on it is the same for root as for all of the other users. You might try to log in as a user, su to root and create a new user and put all of the files from the new users home directory into the/root directory. Make sure and edit them to reflect the change in username -- Hope this helps.

Copy a .profile file from any user's home directory into /root

I don't think that this deleting this file will prevent Root from logging in though.
