I'm not sure why checkroot.sh failed for you, as the code work when I
drytest it on my machine. But in case there is something with fsck
not liking the relative device path, I propose this change to drop the
lazy mount, and instead just mount tmpfs on /tmp, and umount it at the
end. Can you test and let me know if it work or not? I need to make
a new upload of sysvinit in a few hours, so it would be great if you
managed to test it before that.
