Play around with it. In worst case scenario you will have to reinstall
But whatever you will put there, you will be able to try the commands in console window in VirtualBox. VirtualBox also has nice feature called "snapshots", which allows you to save the state of the system before you do anything to it, so in case something goes wrong you can just restore last snapshot and start over - without reinstalling anything.
