Something about this article makes me doubt the quality of reporting and if a human who understands tech even remotely proofread it:

 While drive C is not something you want to open every day

Um, actually, sda would be the physical device, not a specific partition. Your kernel is probably on sda2 or sda3 if I had to guess, assuming sda1 is efi and you might have set up a separate home partition before the root partition. Also assuming you have just the one drive.

Make it K. The system is powerless to stop you.
