No. You do not need to go to the BIOS. As part of the installation process the Linux distribution write a menu to the MBR of the first boot drive. This will give you a choice at boot time between the various operating systems. Linux can share a drive or it can be installed on the separate drive. It is your choice and ultimately depends on the size of the drive and how full it is. It is a good idea to defrag Windows first, if you plan on sharing the Windows drive.
