  Destroy it by wearing out the NVRAM:

  while true; do
      dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/nvram conv=fsync
  done
  

  Don't actually do this

  /dev/nvram    none    swap    sw    0   0
  $ mount -a

  I think you'd have to do some device-mapper linear target trickery to make it work, since /dev/nvram is 144 bytes, smaller than a single page. :P
