Notable changes in this release

This is a pre-release only. It includes DRM drivers and ACPI changes that should allow ShredOS to suspend to RAM and resume more reliably. If you are interested in testing suspend to RAM and reporting the status on your hardware then please download the .img and test and report as described here.

This is the first step in providing ATA secure erase (where the drives own firmware performs the wipe) in ShredOS (and nwipe) for wiping SSDs and HDDs. In the meantime you can manually run a secure erase using hdparm in the ShredOS 2nd virtual terminal (ALT F2).

Note

  • The .img file for writing to a USB flash drive is both legacy (bios) and UEFI bootable.
