This is a pre-release version.

Notable changes in this release - ShredOS

  • Added missing AMDGPU, Radeon and GPU firmware. This was causing some systems to fail to boot to the nwipe screen.
  • Added the network time protocol (NTP). If you plug a cat5 cable into your system and your network has internet access, the date and time will now be updated automatically. Important for accurate date & time information on PDF reports and in the nwipe logs.
  • Increased the vfat disk size from 80Mbytes to ~114MB to accommodate these new additions. This leaves about 11Mbyte free in the VFAT partition for logs and PDF reports. (PDF Reports will be in the v2021.08.2_24_x86-64_0.34 (v24) version.

Notable changes in this release - Nwipe

No changes. There will be lots of nwipe changes in the v0.35 release. HPA/DCO detection, PDF reports, ATA secure erase.

Note

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

As this is only a preview for testing booting on previously non bootable devices I'm not planning on creating .iso's or 32bit versions, unless somebody specifically has a system that for some reason they cannot boot using USB.
