Your hostname is "fedora"?  Um.  Skipping that for now....

Yes, chown would work, although chgrp would be the more "natural" pick.

Either   chown 0:0 /   or   chgrp 0 /

While you're poking around in there, the permissions are also different
from what one would normally expect on Debian.  chmod 755 /

Then again, if this isn't actually a Debian host, the 555 permissions
on the root directory might be normal.
