Re: mkinitcpio problem

You don't have a basic programs like grep wink I not sure but I think, you can find these programs in 'coreutils' package. Try reinstall it.

Re: mkinitcpio problem

It's mktemp that failed... do you have a /tmp dir?

Yeah, do you have write access to /tmp? Do "mktmp /tmp/foo.XXXXX" and see what happens.

Re: mkinitcpio problem

You probably don't have the right permissions. Do a:
# chmod  a+rwxt  /tmp
