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.

    You might as well try. Had a similar issue with Samsung SSD, where they only had support for windows with a .exe, but which created a small Linux system that was installed in the UEFI boot position. So I searched for the Linux executable in the middle of all that mess and executed it directly. Problem solved.
