Hello there,
I have seen there is a new BIOS version for the Z100-0DB available here:
However, that only includes a Windows executable to do the update, and this computer is advertised as fully compatible with GNU/Linux.
So, what's the BIOS update process in GNU/Linux? It's important as some of the fixes included in latest version are needed.
I have already tried fwupd, but there are no fw updates for this computer on the database.
Also, the aforementioned update seems to use Intel's FPT, which I can't find for GNU/Linux.
Note I have a very good impression of this computer, but not having BIOS update means on GNU/Linux would be a major red flag for me in the future with regards to the brand, so please try to address this. Thanks!
