I don't know how it generates the data to overwrite with. Does it use a
lot of CPU?

You can wipe your drive with:

You can wipe your drive with:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/[device to be wiped]
followed by:
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/[device to be wiped]
repeat 7 times per device if you want the DoD standard for wiping a drive.
If you would like to save time/trouble drop the sequence in a script.
Plenty of exam

The quickest would be to encrypt the drives from the beginning. When you
want to discard the drives, you just need to wipe the LUKS header

Hello.
I'm encountering a strange issue with Gnome-Boxes and SELinux running
under F29.
If SELinux is in enforcing mode, the VM can not be started. I get only

Then, after checking the file permissions, I set SELinux to permissiv
