maintboot runs commands outside of the current OS,

with exclusive access to the system and hardware.

This can be useful to run maintenance tasks, like repartitioning, in a controlled environment.

Maintboot builds an appliance on the fly from a list of packages (using supermin). It then loads the appliance with kexec, bypassing the bios, and runs the maintenance script in that new context.

See github.com/g2p/maintboot for installation and usage instructions.
