Hi,
The mktemp in slackware is from "bin" package, the mktemp-gnu is from
coreutils instead, so it will fail to create initramfs
I think there's maybe such problem in other distribution as well, So how
to deal with this? Adding a option or giving out a warning on install?

Thanks
Dave

What is the difference between mktemp-gnu and mktemp on slackware?

mktemp-gnu is from coreutils, mktemp is not.
In my case there's no --tmpdir in mktemp options, so it will fail,
change to mktemp-gnu, it will success.
