As a lifelong Windows user I’ve just for the first time switched to Ubuntu and I’m learning how to navigate the system but I haven’t found an easy way to update my Carbon’s X1 Gen 6 BIOS from its hard disk and would appreciate any advice.
I’d be also happy to hear what I should do as a newcomer to Ubuntu to make my experience with it better and have an easier time overall.
Yeah, I had a look at it myself last night and it showed up empty to me as well, which is a bit strange. I wonder if their 1.64 iso is corrupt?
Though it will not resolve anything, for the sake of curiosity, I might be tempted to check the previous 1.63 iso to see if it is also empty. If the 1.63 iso is not empty, then there’s a problem with their 1.64 iso file, and see just wait for them to fix it. If the 1.63 iso also shows up as empty, then I guess the mystery continues!
[Edit] 1.63 is also empty, so something odd about how iso is formatted?
Thanks for trying to help so much!
I’m at a total loss here, as I’ve never had an issue with a BIOS iso before. Perhaps it’s only visible on Windows, or they have protection in place? Could also be negligence and they don’t care anymore as this is a relatively old model (though I’ve just bought it as I was looking for a good deal on my first proper work laptop 😅)
