With this utility you can "flash" images of the BIOS, EFI, coreboot and firmware of our devices.
As far as I know that the latest version for this is 0.9.1 which has at least 30 additional families Flash chips added since the last version. This tool avoids the use of traditional floppy disks or CD-ROMs to update the BIOS, and may be a much more comfortable to do this. One of the interesting aspects of this is the fact that besides being available for Linux (with binary packages for Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva and openSUSE) is also available for other platforms such as FreeBSD, DragonFly, Nexenta, Solaris and even Mac OS X. It seems that the solution is not recommended for laptops but it is perfectly usable on PCs, although the developer himself warns of the risks that always flash a ROM. I think that this is going to be the best for you. there might be some mgood alternative for this but I have used this on my computer so I am very confident with this.
