It's funny because you can tell whoever wrote this has never run that command. You need to either put --no-preserve-root OR
/*. Using/*obviates the need for the flag --no-preserve-root.Uh... isn't that a good thing?
It's as good as
bind kill mouse1being a protected command in valve consoles... aka not at all.I suppose, I figured most sysadmins had run it for funsies at least once...or a few times LOL.
I compile my own version of
rmso that it doesn't require the parameter.Just in case I need to.
GPT fixes that internally π€‘
It's redundant but it still works; doing it that way does not imply they haven't actually used it.
