Has anyone used a livecd to flash a bios?

If yes what application did you use?

And what about including that application on a livecd or OBI DE?

I have a Aspire One that doesn't boot from SD, it is an older BIOS, and i hope the latest BIOS saves the day. But having a tool to actually flash the binary to the chip would be very handy to have on a livecd.

I made an SD with ToriOS and when i put it in a USB card reader then i'm able to boot from it (BTW ToriOS is nice!) So i really hope the latest BIOS supports booting from SD, that would save one more pocket calculator from the scrapheap.

Anyhow...
Does anyone have experience with upgrading BIOS from within GNU/Linux?
