ME Firmware Updates
by GRS63 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6D0KH)
Currently running Fedora 39 64 bit using ASUS Prime Z790-P mother board and a INTEL i7 processor
I want to update the BIOS but the ASUS site suggests that the ME firmware be updated first to provide better stability and best performance.
The problem is that ASUS only provides a Windows .exe file to allow this to be done and I have no windows OS at all. ASUS says to contact Intel as they do not provide Linux software for ME updates. (not sure if this is passing the buck or not. I did read somewhere that Intel was leaving it to the mother board vendors to provide the update facilities)
So my question is how does one update the ME firmware when all one has available is a Linux operating system?
Updating the BIOS is easy but it is the ME firmware I need to get done.
