Updating BIOS via Linux ?

posted 3 months ago

How to update BIOS on a system that only use Linux as OS.

Asking this because some clowns at Acer decided that they will only provide BIOS updates through Windows Update.

Edit: I’m not talking about installing the BIOS file. They don’t even provide BIOS file in the first place.

So, you are suggesting to use Windows just to update BIOS.

So, you are refusing to accept that you might just not have any other options.

I’m not refusing anything. I asked for clarification. Maybe I worded it badly.
