9.1.3. Scan the entire system

You could wish to scan the entire system, not only some parts of it. Since bdscan does not scan symlinks, block and character devices, you can include safely /dev directory in your path.

The only problem is the number of files to be scanned and the time to scan them, which could be very long, depending on your system's performance and filesystem's capacity. Therefore you could use a log file (to analyze after the scanning process has finished) and to reduce the screen output, displaying only the infected and the suspected files.

# bdscan --log=/tmp/bdscan.log --no-list /
