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.

    Also, I don’t think fwupd has firmware for this particular laptop. ( Acer One 14 Z2-493 )

      Try it out. I was often pleasantly surprised by the things provided by fwupd.
