I’m using Fedora on my laptop (no dual booting - I also deleted the factory windows setup partition). Lenovo only offers BIOS updates for my laptop (Yoga) in windows .exe form. What would be your recommended method to update my BIOS. Use some kind of bootable windows environment on usb? Will I encounter problems? What’s the easiest and least troublesome way?

EDIT: I’m now 99% sure that fwupdmgr updates does not support my device.

EDIT2: I love my laptop and I have no problems using it with Fedora. Also, I’m pretty sure I will figure out some way to update it’s BIOS if need arises. I’m just asking the easiest and most convenient way to do it.

EDIT3: My exact model is “Yoga 7 14IRL8 - Type 82YL”
