no need to burn a cd...

# get the .iso
# get geteltorito (1) and make it executable (chmod +x),
# get memdisk (2),
mkdir /boot/bios
cp /usr/lib/syslinux/memdisk /boot/bios/
# execute "./geteltorito -o /boot/bios/eltorito.img <bla>.iso" or similar
echo "menuentry "BIOS Update" {
        linux16 /bios/memdisk
        initrd16 /bios/eltorito.img
}" >> /etc/grub.d/40_custom
update-grub
reboot
#select "BIOS Update" from the grub menu
#enjoy :)
