Failed to flash bios #4

Closed 4Hani closed 12 months ago

When selecting the different bios versions in the flash window, the program doesn't list the version numbers. Every file just reads "BIOS" in the program, even though the files are properly named on the system. So, at the end, it fails with the error: Open file failed. (path="/home/deck/bios/SteamDeck-BIOS-Manager/BIOS/BIOS")

Update, I redownloaded the BIOS Manager and did the whole thing again, now it showed the actual filenames in the program and it worked just fine.

Yes because on your fist attempt, it looks like you moved the script to somewhere else, based from the error here - Open file failed. (path="/home/deck/bios/SteamDeck-BIOS-Manager/BIOS/BIOS")

the script on the initial release its hardcoded it looks for the BIOS file in a specific directory. for enhancement i can use variables so it can be run from any folder.
