=> I would just unmount the partition and wipe it on FS level (i.e. running |
| 10 |
mkfs with some kind of --force parameter). Another way would running find to |
| 11 |
find and remove symlinks, but putting that one together and removing files |
| 12 |
after could consume more time than mkfs ;) |

BTW, avoid "rm -rf /" (yes, I know, there are DAU checks now) on UEFI systems, |
| 19 |
because they tend to mount essential stuff rw and don’t like deletion of |
| 20 |
stuff. |
