[Corey Szopinski]

Well, I assume everything is completely isolated, running in a  
virtualized program space. Here's what the User-mode Linux project  
page says:

> User-Mode Linux is a safe, secure way of running Linux versions and  
> Linux processes. Run buggy software, experiment with new Linux  
> kernels or distributions, and poke around in the internals of  
> Linux, all without risking your main Linux setup.
