[arch-general] Link to the original efivars BBS thread
Hello all, A few days ago, there was a big stink about bricking motherboards accidentally with an overzealous rm that descended into /sys/firmware/efi/efivars. It all started with one thread on the BBS titled "No POST after rm -rf /". After reading about the issue, I went into archivist mode and made a small writeup for myself detailing how to remount efivars as ro. I saved the link to the original thread [0], but now when I navigate to it, I get the error message, "Bad request. The link you followed is incorrect or outdated." Was the thread moved? Does anyone have the new address of the thread? --Kyle [0]: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=207549

It's still there, but it was moved to TGN so you need to be logged into the forums to see it. -- Eli Schwartz

Aha! And I had SeaMonkey set to clear cookies on exit. Thank you! I didn't realize that Topics Going Nowhere is only available to logged in users. --Kyle
