This mode is used to uninstall a NOS using ONIE. The ONIE uninstall mode boots
the ONIE kernel and deletes the NOS image running on the switch. After the
uninstall is complete, the ONIE discovery process is executed.
To boot the switch in ONIE uninstall mode on the next reload, use the following
command from the switch CLI:
 Lenovo Enterprise Network OS:
G8272(config)# boot image onie-image uninstall
 Lenovo Cloud Network OS:
G8272(config)# startup image onie-image uninstall
Note: The following warning will be displayed after choosing ONIE uninstall
mode and you will be prompted for confirmation:
WARNING: Booting ONIE in uninstall mode will completely uninstall the
operating system!
Only the ONIE image will be preserved.
Are you sure you want the next boot to uninstall the OS? (y/n)
Once you confirm, the switch will boot in ONIE uninstall mode on the next reload.
