      Well no, that command won’t work.

      You need to run:

      rm -rf / --no-preserve-root

        1. That is distribution specific.
        2. I’m not just gonna post a command like that so some idiot can paste it into their terminal to see what happens.

          1. Ah, good to know!
          2. If they are running ramdom commands from the internet in a privileged terminal, then this will quickly stop them doing that.
