As a lifelong Windows user I’ve just for the first time switched to Ubuntu and I’m learning how to navigate the system but I haven’t found an easy way to update my Carbon’s X1 Gen 6 BIOS from its hard disk and would appreciate any advice.
I’d be also happy to hear what I should do as a newcomer to Ubuntu to make my experience with it better and have an easier time overall.
That’s a good question. I have a few devices that are Linux compatible but require Windows to upgrade the firmware. I don’t know if I trust Wine or Bottles enough to run these applications to update a BIOS. Or if it’s even going to work?
I can always update device firmware through a Windows VM, but not my PC hardware.
