Hi,
Sold my laptop on Ebay. It was dual boot Gentoo/XP Pro and had
financial data on it. I'd like to pretty securely wipe the drive
before shipping. I've already deleted all 10 partitions and written
new partitions on which are different sizes and different file
systems. What simple command can Ido to write data to the whole drive?
After doing this I will be deleting all partitions again and
running the XP reinstall disk from Compaq so that the new buyer gets a
machine more or less ready for him to work. (I offered to set him up
with Gentoo but he didn't byte.) ;-)
Cheers,
Mark
