Yes.  If you notice it's changed when you first boot into your new
BIOS (via `ifconfig' or something else) you will probably want to
flash the old BIOS.  You can simply `flashrom -Vw oldbios.rom' -
although please note that you may have to clear the CMOS, where the
BIOS stores settings.  You know you will have to do this if after
downgrading, the computer fails to successfully boot.  This happened
to me a bit ago.  Basically you turn the computer off, unplug it, find
the battery on the motherboard and remove it for about a minute.  Put
it back in, turn it on, and then you may want to set the clock in the
BIOS to the correct time, and any other settings you previously set.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
