After booting from the live DVD (assuming you are using a ubuntu based
distro), open terminal and type

sudo fdisk -l

This should show your linux partitions.

Find the Linux partition no. where you have your /root  directory, or try

sudo blkid (this will print your filesystem informations in detail)

for example, if your linux partition (where your /root directory) is
/dev/sda6, then try mounting the partition as below

sudo mkdir /mnt/sda6
sudo mount /dev/sda6  /mnt/sda6

cd /mnt/sda6/

look for your 'root' directory

sudo chmod 700 root

HTH.
