I tried the above commands to perform a manual update and
now my Ultra 1 does not boot. Whenever I try to reboot,
it says the kernal file no longer appears to be a
binary. Any suggestions? Before I tried the above fix,
my machine booted but told me it was in the middle of an
update and to call the hotline. So I did and now
my machine does not work at all.
