how to bypass bios cut off
Hi!
I seem to need to update my BIOS. If I grabbed the right line in the terminal, then my motherboard is an ASUS A7N8X-X ACPI BIOS Rev 1006.
To explain why I want to update my BIOS, I've got an older 'puter and been getting error 18 in grub everytime i boot up for about a month now. i am able to launch ubuntu (i only have ubuntu 6.06) by choosing a slightly earlier kernel version. i'm wary about uninstalling the latest kernel version because it looks like synaptic wants to grab a lot of other kernel stuff along with it...scary. i'd like to upgrade to (or, all else failing, re-install with) gutsy. seems like updating the BIOS would be better to do before attempting upgrade.
so...I can only find a windows program for updating an ASUS BIOS. Please help!
many thanks.
