Supermicro motherboard: update BIOS...who need DOS!
-
Quick shortcut for AMIBios(any AMIBios mobo)
Load the update on usb, reboot, mash Ctrl+Home during POST.
You can update to the bios loaded on usb. -
Not really surprised since EFI is a full OS at the hardware level now.

It's not an OS. Just has some more features.

People say that stuff about anything and everything. People call hypervisors OSes, just about anything that runs on a computer someone will call an OS.

UEFI is the new name for EFI.
From Intel: "The Unified EFI (UEFI) Specification (previously known as the EFI Specification) defines an interface between an operating system and platform firmware."

Right, it is UEFI not EFI, and not an OS. Like I said.
