so here are the actual command that you will have to run, dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hd? ; dd if=/dev/full of=/dev/hd? ; dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hd? is the addition of /dev/full sufficent ie /dev/zero alternated by /dev/full should do the trick ? ie write zeros and ones on the disk, followed by random writes. done 5 times should it be enought? -aditya ������������������������������������������������������ �b���v�"� axZ�x����ڔGb�*'���[kj����j)m���r�� _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
