You need to create an /tmp directory inside your / folder. For this, you have to boot from Ubuntu live disk.

  • Boot from Ubuntu live disk.

  • Get the root partition name.(Name of the partition where Ubuntu is installed. It will be like /dev/sdXx)

  • Now mount that partition on /mnt,

    sudo mount /dev/sdXx /mnt
    
  • Create a tmp directory inside /mnt.

    sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp
    
  • Now change the permissions.

    sudo chmod 1777 /mnt/tmp
    
  • Unmount the mounted partition.

    sudo umount /dev/sdXx
    
  • Reboot your pc.
