How to update BIOS on a system that only use Linux as OS.

Asking this because some clowns at Acer decided that they will only provide BIOS updates through Windows Update.

Edit: I’m not talking about installing the BIOS file. They don’t even provide BIOS file in the first place.

    Install windows on a second/spare drive. Boot PC from this and run their tool.

    I know you’re trying to find a way around not using windows, but if the vendors only solution involves it, I wouldn’t trust any hacky workarounds when it comes to bios updates.
