Actually, looking at the question, the comments and answers cover the situation perfectly well.

  1. The comments repeatedly say why this is a bad idea.
  2. The answers cover things you need to do this relatively safely.
  3. The OP has a definatedefinite goal, though, its an XY question.

I think it was handled pretty well.

I'd add this wasn't quite what I expected when I saw the question title in the feeds. If someone was actually suicidal, rather than at risk of destroying their install, the process would be very different.
