AS per /etc/grub.d/00_header, line 38 if [ "x${GRUB_DEFAULT}" = "x" ] ; then GRUB_DEFAULT=0 ; fi
so trying with a new grubenv made with: oem@dev32:~$ sudo su [sudo] password for oem: root@dev32:/home/oem# cd /boot/grub root@dev32:/boot/grub# rm grubenv root@dev32:/boot/grub# grub-editenv grubenv create root@dev32:/boot/grub# grub-editenv grubenv set default="x" root@dev32:/boot/grub# grub-editenv grubenv list the returned value is: default=x , so 00_header rule should now understand 'GRUB_DEFAULT=0' as it might and stop grubenv be rewriten with garbage. hm, will see if its true or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311247 Title: [Grubenv] error: malformed file, press any key to continue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1311247/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
