Question, does anyone knows if it is safe to install ubuntu 17.10 in a lenovo legion Y52o?

I don't see it listed in the known affected models. Also if I install it and it affects the BIOS, installing the 4.14.9 kernel would fix it?

I've just acquired that laptop, but purchased before the bug was known, I'm desperate for using it, but not in windows and I just want to know if the problem is fixable in case it breaks the BIOS.

Thanks
