Does it say that? Mine says, for both:

    Process terminal exited abnormally with code 127
    ..: 1: [: sh: unexpected operator
    ..: 1: exec: sh -c 'ls /home': not found

Somewhere along the line that fails a `stringp' test,
i.e., `term' wants a string.

You can see that this isn't going to work just by
`C-h f term': (term PROGRAM) - so one argument.
