[dundee] BIOS update through linux

[Jason Cormie]

Don't know if this one is common knowledge.
I just used "flashrom" to upgrade my BIOS, without needing to boot into
DOS/windows.

Its available as a debian package or from linuxbios.org
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all&keywords=flashrom&sourceid=mozilla-search
http://www.linuxbios.org/Flashrom

But remember it may still turn your machine into an unattractive paperweight
