Uninstalling Debian
Debian may be removed from your storage media, by reverting it to a non-partitioned state.
Step 1 - Back up your data to a remote source. Assure that you can access it successfully before overwriting the original.
Step 2 - Boot your device from the media used to install Debian. The drive manager will display a partition containing the installed system. Select "delete partition" to erase it. (Warning, this will remove Debian.) For complete data security, physically deconstruct the installation media to a point where it is unrecoverable.
