Update BIOS on Latitude D630 using boot CD
Hello
We've Latitude D630 notebooks with Linux Debian and we would like to update BIOS from A13 to A17.
Is it possible and how it works to do it using a boot CD or an external floppy drive?

Run the BIOS update utility from DOS environment (Non-Windows users)
NOTE: You will need to provide a bootable DOS diskette. This executable file does not create the DOS system files.
Copy the file D630_A17.EXE to a bootable floppy.
Boot from the floppy to the DOS prompt.
Run the file by typing Y:\D630_A17.EXE (where y is the drive letter where the executable is located).
I hope that this helps

and floppy with D630_A17.EXE.
It works well.
