there are apps specifically for updating a machine bios on linux using a windoz exe, one explanation: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Flashing_BIOS_from_Linux
As this laptop is double boot with Windows 10, I will try that route first. But thanks for the link, I'll have a look.
Now I'm preparing to reboot to W10 without network, and try the firwmare update.
Wish me luck ;-)
Done!
Well, it still takes long before grub appears, but so far no error message. Of course it is too soon, will have to try longer.
Today the error message appeared again, once :-( Still, I think I booted these days perhaps 5 times, with one failure today. Previously, each time I powered up the machine I had to try 2..4 times. So it is a big improvement. I noticed a forum of the disk brand, I'll try asking them if it is a known problem. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
