I'd say you cannot very easily harm it permanently, if that's what you are asking.

Yes, you can also run ubiboot in maintanance mode without flashing it to MTD, just turn the device off and restart it with flasher like this;

Code:
"sudo flasher -k zImage_2.6.32.54-ubiboot-02_301013 -l -b"
The flasher will push the ubiboot kernel to the device without flashing it, and if you do not disconnect the USB cable you will get straight to maintanance mode.
