OK, that's different.

Installing these patches is very safe. They are only slightly more dangerous than installing a firmware update. At the worst, you will have to do a factory reset. And if you don't like them, simply reinstall the current firmware over the current installation.

If you are worried about needing to do a factory reset, then take a copy of the book partition before starting. Copy everything. Then, if you do get into trouble, you can do a factory reset and restore these files afterwards and you are back were you started.
