Hello,
Is anyone willing to share the source to an efficient program that
wipes a disk clean and meets DOD standard 5220.22-M that requires
overwriting with a pattern, and then its complement, and finally with a
random pattern of 1's and 0's. The efficient Tru64 UNIX utility
/usr/lbin/zeero writes zeros only.
I figure I would ask before re-inventing the wheel.
