Hi,
My experience with upgrading BIOS from GNU/Linux is NO.
FreeDOS can sometimes run the executable and work well.
Usually what I do before installing GNU/Linux is to upgrade the BIOS.
So if you have a Windows CD install windows, upgrade BIOS, and then
install GNU/Linux.
Someone else may have some experience doing it, but the last BIOS update
I did was quite some time ago.
p.s. thanks I am glad you like ToriOS, me too!

If yes what application did you use?
And what about including that application on a livecd or OBI DE?
I have a Aspire One that doesn't boot from SD, it is an older BIOS,
and i hope the latest BIOS saves the day. But having a tool to
actually flash the binary to the chip would be very handy to have on a
livecd.
I made an SD with ToriOS and when i put it in a USB card reader then
i'm able to boot from it (BTW ToriOS is nice!)
So i really hope the latest BIOS supports booting from SD, that would
save one more pocket calculator from the scrapheap.
Anyhow...
Does anyone have experience with upgrading BIOS from within GNU/Linux?
