For Linux, tool: yafuflash; Library: libipmi.so.1, libipmi.so.1.0 

1. The file libipmi.so.1 should be accessible to linux system. 
Usually when running an application linux searches for the 
dependent libraries in the default locations like /usr/lib /lib folders.
 
2. Copy libipmi.so.1 to /lib or /usr/lib and run 'ldconfig'
OR 
copy libipmi.so.1 to some folder and issue the following command 
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<location_of_libipmi_so> ./Yafuflash
You may have to create a link to libipmi.so.1.0 (ln –sf libipmi.so.1.0 libipmi.so.1)

3. Run yafuflash just like in Windows.
  Eg. for network flashing: 
  #LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/linux_x86 ./Yafuflash -full -b -c -nw -ip 192.168.100.136 rom.ima
OR
  ./Yafuflash -full -b -c -nw -ip 192.168.100.136 -u ADMIN -p ADMIN rom.ima
