wait. would deleting the inode/sys/(whatever) actually modify UEFI memory? sure, writing to those inodes could do all sorts of harm,

It's going to get /boot. And under there, it'll get /boot/EFI.
so it will delete inodes there... does that damage the EFI hardware? I would think you'd have to open files and write data to actually modify the EFI stuff.
my only C7 systems right now are VMs which don't have uefi, so I can't look and see what all this stuff actually is.
Yeah, I don't think we really know, until someone's willing to brick a many-thousand-dollar server....
