Noticed this while setting up my test install. The installer checks if the avatar and background directories are writable, but fails to check the file directory used for attachments. This leads to failures when a user attaches a file, as the directory may have been left unwritable.

Additionally, the readme only mentions checking the avatar directory, and needs to be updated with the other two upload dirs.

Attached patch does both.

I ran into this problem myself, and it was frustrating. Thanks for the patch.
