It is not very configurable. If you want something more specific than removing the MBR and all boot flags (on primary partitions) from a set of drives, you may want to copy the script and edit it to do exactly what you want, but the chance that you will need to do that is extremely small. @node Invoking @chapter Invoking @cindex invoking @cindex arguments @cindex options @cindex executing @cindex running @command{bootcleanse} requires (unless you have a customised, unsecure system set-up) superuser privileges, and will tell you what it is about to do and ask if it should proceed. @command{bootcleanse} takes no options, but takes all arguments and assumes those are the drives you want to remove the MBR code and boot flags from. @node License of bootcleanse @appendix License of bootcleanse @flushleft bootcleanse – Cleanse your system from old MBR codes and boot flags Copyright © 2012, 2013 Mattias Andrée (m@@maandree.se) This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
