As I've been pondering [and searching] on the whole bios update under
NOT windows-- I came across an interesting article that MIGHT help you--
BIOS Flashing and Hotflashing
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2004/03/11/bios_hotflash.html
The Author swears it's easy -- I hope I never have to use these
techniques...

it's an idea [that seems a little more fun -- and SCARY than installing

flashing the bios.
Doesn't even take a power outage. I bricked my brother's HP (running XP)
doing a BIOS upgrade a couple months ago. Tell 'em the truth, "I tried
to update the BIOS and now it won't boot." No need to go into detail.
