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.

    Sorry, but in your case the only way is to install Windows. Make a dual boot.

      Thank you.

      I think it’s stupid to provide something hardware related like BIOS exclusively through a particular proprietary software like Windows.
