This is quite a facile answer, but maybe your kernel is corrupted in
some way.<br>
<br>
Go to this website
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa">https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa</a><br>
<br>
follow the instructions to create a ppa. Then, issue the following
command<br>
<br>
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install linux-generic
linux-image-generic linux-headers-generic <br>
<br>
This should update your kernel to the latest development version.<br>
<br>
Okay, I know that some readers aren't going to like my suggestion
that a user enter the development stream. Quite honestly, I have
never had a problem with the kernels released through
ppa:canonica-kernel-team. Almost every time everything fits
together well.<br>

Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
Sorry to have stuffed up original posting, an accidental hijacking
occurred,<br>
and thanks to James for putting me on the right track (I hope).<br>
<br>
I apologise in advance if this is trivial, but it is irritating
and also intriguing.<br>
But when my machine is booting, before the splash screens, I get
this message..<br>
<br>
Error: malformed file press any key to continue<br>
<br>
Having done the obligatory Google searches I can't find a strong
lead.<br>
If anyone has a spare moment can you enlighten me please?<br>
Is it important? (I don't seem to suffer any problems as a result
of this message that I know of)<br>
Or should I just continue to ignore it?<br>
Or have I missed some update etc?<br>
<br>
