This MR is related to this issue #9 .
In short: There is no BIOS firmware for Linux/macOS and I add it.
I did all as in the instruction of this issue and changed flash.nsh script so that a user can follow default instructions and automatically can update a BIOS. I check this functionality, and it works.
Also, I add additional information for updating the BIOS firmware.

Hello, I have no way to test the firmware as I sold the laptop. If someone can send proof that the firmware is working then I will be able to merge, but till then I don't think I will merge any binary files to this repo :)

Maybe we check the hash sum of files? because I only took the existing firmware archive with 603 BIOS, unzip and take a 906 file XMAKB5R0P0906.fd and move to the directory and change a string in flash.nsh .

Maybe you can unzip 603 bios in 906 directory and move XMAKB5R0P0906.fd file to this directory. And then I will add changes to flash.nsh . And you will see, that nothing dangerous here?
