> an update is available for your BIOS (A06)

I don't know how to apply this update. I'm running Ubuntu exclusively on
this machine and it seems to be a windows binary.

Is it safe to run via wine? Is there some Windows live usb image (the
computer doesn't even have a cd/dvd drive) for that? Is any of these
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DellBIOS guides still applicable?

I have the older A03.
