Comment on Been wishing this community was more active, decided to be the change. Anyways I felt cute, running Arch KDE on a Thinkpad.
Can’t tell if serious or trying to get people to type it in to prove you wrong….
They’re right. The latest kernels have a safe guard and you need to type –no-preserve-root to force it to delete /.
–no-preserve-root
You can also just do sudo rm -rf /* and let shell expansion do the rest.
sudo rm -rf /*
WARNING: DO NOT RUN THESE COMMANDS. THEY WILL DELETE EVERYTHING ON YOUR ROOT PARTITION.
The fact that the second one still works is a bit terrifying.
