    It's not impossible to view the BIOS settings in an OS but if you
    changed the BIOS settings you would still need to reboot before the
    changes take effect, so there isn't much point in editing the settings
    with a live OS running. Also you normaly take card of the BIOS
    settings "before" the server is in production use.

    Are you wanting to edit the setting on a headless or hard to get at
    system? if so then you want a motherboard that has console
    redirection.
