Bug#1106830: initscripts: checkroot.sh returns error and does not attempt to save logs if logfile does not exist

If I understand it correctly, this will not attempt to save the logfile if the logfile, or the directory that will 
contain the logfile does not exist. If /var is on a different partition that is not yet mounted, there is no way to 
check for the existence of the /var/log/fsck directory.
