I used VirtualBox to get XPEnology running on my N40L. Performance was fine (for what I expected for it), only ran to the issue that whenever I tried to install the 'video station' package it deed seem to make my installation useless. Every time it was telling me it was 'updating the system', I was unable to access the device.
My suggestion, try the packages first and test them extensively before putting any valuable data on it.
