MSI isn't all that Linux friendly. When I was shopping for a dual Opteron
board, I checked out the MSI site and rejected them because all the BIOS
upgrades and etc were in MSWormOS executable format (probably self
extracting zip), as was all the documentation.
FWIW, the newer files do seem to use .zip and .pdf (i only checked for
my mobo though K8T Neo2)-- so maybe your mail had a positive effect on
them? ;) Though I agree a freedos image to do the bios update would be
really nice...
BTW, unzip supports self-extracting (.exe) zip archives.
But I don't want this to turn into an MSI advertisement, I just wanted
to point out that they seem to have gotten better to when you checked
them out.
