Additional comment to post #35 /etc/default/grub have 'GRUB_DEFAULT=0' so its like setting ubuntu as default i suppose (or that fonction is buggy) so why grubenv is also checked ? that seems redondant as 'grub' already have the required setting; or it is a borked grubenv file that is pushing that issue ?

Thanks coolinger for the finding. Glancing at my Utopic /boot/grub/grubenv, i see it writen on each boot. The latest is like: # GRUB Environment Block ### All these seems insane. Note that my system is running only linux OS: ubuntu & debian, so no windows around and no empty ntfs partition.

[Bug 1311247] Re: error: malformed file, press any key to continue
So, this appears to be caused by a well-intentioned sanity check in Grub
that sees an error where there's none when checking grubenv files
spanning multiple "blocks".
In checking that blocks don't overlap, the code has an if-statement that
appears to be accidentally negated ("if (s2 > s1)", should be "if (s1 >
s2)"), causing Grub to *always* report an error *unless* all blocks
overlap. Offending commit appears to be cb72aa1.
I can only assume that the only reason this hasn't been caught earlier
is that the grubenv file most commonly only consists of one Grub
"block"?
