Same issue here. Xubuntu 14.04 (32 bit) clean install. 2 HDD, 2 partitions : "/" and "swap".
After grub the message: "error: malformed file, press any key to continue" Pressing a key allows booting to continue. Sometimes it displays and I need to hit a key, sometimes not and it boot straight. Grub is installed on /dev/sda -- 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: 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 [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
