Thank you for your report. Can you clarify a few things for me, please: 1) which image (URL) did you use, and what was the exact dd command? 2) do you mean, --wipe=never did nothing at all? Or did it fail? Did it wipe some data? I.e. what was your expectation and what actually happened? Thanks, Chris
