I had the same worry for a moment when I installed 9.0 February last, and decided to try it first without changing the BIOS. It made no difference. If you should later find (not likely, but IANAE) that you do need to change that for any device, you`d only have to remember to change the setting at reboot time maybe, but chances are you`ll reboot less and less once you grow into Linux. Certainly not for hotfixes, secupdates and assorted other Redmond missives. And guaranteed never for a BSOD.
