I tried to reinstall Artix with ERASE-Clean Install only to see it is missing from the Calameres menu.
Why would this option be removed when you have an existing Artix installation.
I am not smart enough to remove an attackers modifications to the system so ERASE is my only salvation.
When I see in the Audit.log and there are no shells in the logs, even after doing system updates, then I look at the whole log for the day or a boot to boot time period to see why normal shells aren't showing. If I can't find normal shell activity in the log, I get concerned and ERASE.
When I can figure out how to make clones, then I'll switch to that method, but for now ERASE is my best friend.
My workaround, install another OS then reboot and reinstall Artix. It takes me 3 times as long. (The other installer takes twice as long as artix installer.)
To erase the whole drive (if it's a SSD) use:
sudo blkdiscard -fv /dev/sdX
Than it's complete empty: Everything is away.
That would save me a half an hour.
The other Arch distro takes 20 minutes to do it's thing.
Artix takes 2 minutes to do it's thing.
Add one minute for running blkdiscard and I save 27 minutes from my life of waiting.
Is that for the root partition nvme0n1p2, efi partition nvme0n1p1, or just the drive nvme0n1?
Why don't you try and read documentation and manual pages for suggested tools? Answers to most of your questions are already there.
man blkdiscard
I have no experiences with NVMe and how it looks there.
On SATA i. e. /dev/sda is the whole drive. /dev/sda1 the first partition and so on.
I using
wipefs -a /dev/sdX
Yes, you are right. I use wipefs to delete filesystem signatures.
