While my Trisquel installation seems perfectly happy with things as they are,
it occurs to me that when the time comes that I need to update the BIOS of my
legacy motherboard (no Intel email, phone or chat support) can I or should I
even try, and can I do so without resort to a *indows computer ? My Trisquel
installation has no *indows OS residing inside it.
Reading Intel's instructions, I came to a page which leads to this non-Intel
webpage:
http://www.weethet.nl/english/hardware_bootfromusbstick.php
Which describes how to create a bootable USB stick ... but will that be
sufficient if I also place the BIOS upgrade file downloaded from the Intel
site onto that same bootable USB stick ?
http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-023357.htm
Will there be sufficient OS on that USB stick to execute the installation of
the BIOS update onto the motherboard operated by Trisquel?
I'm anxious to avoid placing any *indows OS on the same computer as Trisquel.
I got along that way with separate debian and *indows computers for about
fifteen years, communicating files with a network attached hard drive,
external storage at my ISP, or CD's.
