general trend in upgrading BIOS
Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 3:47 am
hi, i am wondering if most motherboards today allow upgrading of BIOS to be simply a matter of running an executable? or a more difficult process is required, eg boot up from a disk etc.
i found a page that updates the BIOS simply by wget and such:
http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/12/09/up ... th-ubuntu/
it just sounds very dangerous to me (to be made so easy to update the BIOS). anyone knows if i'm just too pessimistic?anyone
