In this video, we will go over how to update your computer's BIOS while on Linux. This method works for Dell (since what I have is a Dell laptop) and I haven't tried it on any other brands. I'm sure it is the same principle, but a different process. I hope that everyone benefits from this video.

Thanks for this tutorial- very easy to follow and I like the guitar music in the background. Helps to calm my nerves while learning to flash my BIOS.

@bubbatennessee7531 Год назад

A big thanks ! Can't believe it is this simple, I have to give it try. I read other instructions, all take a lot more doing than yours.

You are a savior. I think you should make some more tutorials on linux, especially the debian side meaning ubuntu and stuff. You are so good at explaining stuff. For example I want to know some apps you use, how you enavled wifi, sound problems solutions etc

Asus provided me with a "linux option" to update my BIOS, it's just the new file in binary format. It didn't boot from the drive, I had to go into the settings in the BIOS (asus EZ flash utility) and look for the new file there. Anyway, thanks for the video!!

6:17 you can copy text in the terminal with Ctrl+Shift+C (not Ctrl+C unless you have changed the shortcut manually)

@spiewak70 Год назад

Great video but there is only one problem with my system, the battery is dead and when I get to the bios flash screen it shows the power status as inadequate how do I bypass this in Linux, there are plenty of videos for Windows but I can't seem to find a solution for Linux

@basu.31 Год назад

My system is completely Linux. I don't have any windows os installed alongside of my Linux. In my case it was showing invalid file after selecting the file for Bios flash update. Don't know what to do. please guide me.

I have Dell Inspiron 3000 series with bios version A00. Is it safe to update it directly to A07 or it should be done step by step like A02 then A03 and so on?

@MyReviews_karkan Год назад

I'd go one by one to be safe

Dell 760... insert fat32 usb stick with bios .exe file, set boot up to boot from usb device... computer responds “no bootable partition found”. Is there a missing step in your video about rendering the usb “bootable”?

@MyReviews_karkan 2 года назад

Watch the video one more time. I never set the device to boot from a USB device. I simply went into BIOS via F12 then chose "BIOS Flash Update". Of course it's going to tell you "no bootable partition", an .exe file isn't an ISO.

@lenholton130 2 года назад

@@MyReviews_karkan When you've seen one bios menu you've seen one bios menu. My system (older Dell) doesn't offer the "BIOS Flash Update" option... but what did work was the machine was a dual boot with WinXP; since Linux Mint now ships with the Boot Repair Option switching between Linux and WinXP is really simple so that when Windows breaks the bootup GRUB, as it always seem to, booting into Live Linux and repairing the boot option and presto! All fixed in 5 minutes or less :-)

@dlbet4110 4 месяца назад

My dell BIOS doesn't have that option either. I can get into bios easily, but no update exists.

@MyReviews_karkan 2 года назад

If you download your update file from Dell directly, it's 100% safe as long as you follow the steps.

@LEO-xo9cz 2 года назад

@@MyReviews_karkan Thanks. I've always been to scared to try.

@MyReviews_karkan 2 года назад

No need to be scared. Just make sure you search for your exact "service tag" on the Dell website and grab the update. I've done it a million times. Lol

@LEO-xo9cz 2 года назад

@@MyReviews_karkan Thanks. I have an Asus laptop that needs doing how similar would the process be?

@MyReviews_karkan 2 года назад

It should be the same principle, but the bios on your laptop should look and function different from Dell. But the downloading of the bios update and putting it on the flash drive should be the same. You'll need to look for a "bios update" or something similar in your bios while the flash drive is plugged to start the update.
