For testing a FS a virtual machine is fine, but often you need a "real"
install even for playing, that's why I've got a multi-boot with that
many Linux. I'm not maintaining all those installs.

Indeed, regarding to the kind of playing, a multi-boot could be risky,
but usually it isn't, simply keep a backup disconnected from the
computer, not only a copy from one HDD to the other inside your
computer. This should be save enough for home usage, where we usually
have the time to restore from a backup.
