Reinstalling Debian would be a pointless extra step. What I would do is remove the HD currently installed, temporarily install some other HD, install Windows on that, install the BIOS update, then reinstall the original HD that has Debian already installed. Knowing how HP can make using FOSS software so difficult, I probably never would have bought an HP in the first place, unless pre-owned, for an extremely low price, or for free. The only HP I own was free. Upgrading its BIOS was similarly difficult, but I did do it, to solve a problem similar to yours (bad ACPI), using instructions not provided by HP that included using an extra HD. > They mention "RedFlag Linux", which is unknown > to me, however this doesn't sound like a distro > issue so perhaps it can be made to work? > RedFlag is a Chinese distro by the way, which > isn't a Debian fork for a change but based on > Red Hat [1]. > > [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Flag_Linux -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
