Bug Description

Flashing the prebuilt root fs fails on Asus TF300T using TWRP.
This is a shame, as finally we don't need the libc replacement and could use the official images.

The reason is that the updater-script tries to extract another shell script to /tmp, but TWRP does not have a /tmp directory.
At least TWRP for our TF300T does not have it.

A simple fix would be to extract the shell script to /data like the tarball, or to mount /cache and put it there.

Putting it to high as it'll break the installation for people using TWRP.
