Hello I have an Acer AR380 F2 2U server and looking to update the bios from P01 to P04 I have downloaded and run off a Ubuntu Live USB with the files with nothing but errors and the DOS one fails to run through my Windows VM running on the server (as I expected it would)

could you please advise the steps or best way to update the BIOS on this system, its current base O/S is UnRAID v6.5.3
