Actually, looking at the question, the comments and answers cover the situation perfectly well.
- The comments repeatedly say why this is a bad idea.
- The answers cover things you need to do this relatively safely.
- The OP has a definate 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.
