I have created an ISO image ready to burn with the BIOS version 1.43. Follow the steps:
- Unpack and burn the ISO image with you favourite application. - Reboot your Acer laptop. - Hit F2 in the first screen to enter setup. Navigate to menu "Boot" and make sure the first device is CD drive. - Save and exit. It will boot the FreeDOS Operating System. - Make sure when you get the prompt that you are in the CD unit (is labeled X:). - Change directory to X:\firm (cd firm). - Execute if50.bat to flash the 1.43 version BIOS. I prepared this to flash my own Acer Aspire 5315, so I though I could share. Credits go to Sean Reifschneider for explaining the process to create a FreeDOS iso image modified (http://www.tummy.com/journals/entries/jafo_20080920_234755). Link to the iso image: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/221701/FDOS_v1_43.iso.tar.gz I hope it helps. Of course, use at your own risk! Anybody not sure about using this iso, just read Mr. Reifschneider post and feel free to follow the steps. -- CPU cooling fan does not start at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
