Does anyone know what the last supported BIOS was for the z840, and also where I can find it?

I’ve installed the last version available, 2.59A from 2022-05-05 without specific issues:

If you want to install it from Linux, you also need to install the Flame tools and kernel module which is slightly trickier, otherwise you can use the USB stick method.

is ADSK still recommending BIOS versions? They really need to get out of the greybox market.
