Flashing bios

Flashing bios doesn't necessarily depend on OS. However if you want to do with on Linux then do it with flashrom.

Here you can see how to do it.

edit: Example

Install it:
$ apt-get install flashrom

Detect whether flashrom knows about your chipset/mainboard/BIOS chip:
$ flashrom

Read the BIOS image into a file:
$ flashrom -r backup.bin

Write a BIOS image (proprietary or LinuxBIOS) on the ROM chip:
$ flashrom -wv newbios.bin


WARNING: This will overwrite your current BIOS! Make sure you know what you're doing!

How to do Arithmetic Operations in Ansible

You can use arithmetic calculations in Ansible using the Jinja syntax. This is helpful in many situations where you have stored the output of an operation, and you need to manipulate that value. All usual operation like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulo are possible. Let us start with an example. We will be using the  debug module  to print the out the result. The following tasks show all the basic arithmetic operations. The output is given in comments. Ansible arithmetic operation example - hosts: loc tasks: - debug: msg: "addition{{ 4 +3 }}" #Ansible addition 7 - debug: msg: "substraction {{ 4 - 3 }}" #Ansible arithmetic substraction 1 - debug: msg: "multiplication {{ 4 * 3 }}" #multiplication 12 - debug: msg: "Modulo operation {{ 7 % 4}}" #ansible Modulo operation - find remainder 3 - debug: msg: "floating division {{ 4 / 3}}" #ansible floating divisio...

Ansible - Appending to lists and dictionaries  n this blog post I'll show how to add items to lists and dictionaries, when using loops, and across tasks. Normally when trying to add a new item to the variable, while in the loop, or between tasks, Ansible will ovewrite the values, keeping the result of the last iteration. For example, let's see what will be the result of running the following playbook: --- - name: Append to list hosts: localhost vars: cisco: - CiscoRouter01 - CiscoRouter02 - CiscoRouter03 - CiscoSwitch01 arista: - AristaSwitch01 - AristaSwitch02 - AristaSwitch03 tasks: - name: Add Cisco and Airsta devices to the list set_fact: devices: "{{ item }}" with_items: - "{{ cisco }}" - "{{ arista }}" - name: Debug list debug: var: devices verbosity: 0 [przemek@quasar blog]$ ansible-playbook append_list.yml PLAY [Append to list] ****************...
