    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 <https://github.com/g2p/maintboot#readme>`_
    for installation and usage instructions.
