[PATCH V2] t9810: Do not use sed -i

From
Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de>
Date
Jan 1, 2013, 23:20 UTC
Message-ID
<201301020020.38535.tboegi@web.de>

sed -i is not portable on all systems. Use sed with different input and output files. Utilize a tmp file whenever needed

Added missing && at 2 places
Signed-off-by: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de>

Changes since v1:
Use "sed <infile >outfile"
Added missing && at 2 places (thanks for catching)
