nwipe-0.06-2.el4 (FEDORA-EPEL-2012-0146)
Securely erase disks using a variety of recognized methods
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Package: nwipe
Description:
The nwipe is a command that will securely erase disks using a variety of recognized
methods. It is a fork of the dwipe command used by Darik's Boot and Nuke (dban). Nwipe
was created out of need to run the DBAN dwipe command outside of DBAN. This allows it to
use any host distribution, which gives better hardware support. It is essentially the same
as dwipe, with a few changes:
- pthreads is used instead of fork
- The parted library is used to detect drives
- The code is designed to be compiled with gcc
