The error message is pretty clear - the 'dir.root' property is not set properly. Turning off bootstrap checks simply suppresses the error message - the system is unlikely to function correctly until the location of the content store (as specified in 'dir.root') is set properly.

/var/opt/alfresco is the dir.root. How do I get System content in there and why wasn't it there to begin with?

I ran into the same error with 2.0 when I had a typo in my custom-repository.properties. I was trying to point to dir.contentstore to a directory that didn't exist. Once I fixed the typo and copied the contentstore directory from the original dir.root Alfresco was happy.
