Nope, Samsung does the same thing with their SSD drives. You can only update their firmware from windows as well. I've seen some stuff about ways to create a Windows live CD or USB, but never tried it (instead I check before I buy and don't buy any hardware that requires windows for things like firmware updates :-). You still have to have a copy of Windows for the live media, but at least you don't have to install it anywhere. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
