Various ways to wipe "empty space" are described here and there. One is to use "sfill" ...did not work...foremost find all files after "sfill"...
Another way is to use dd to fill the partition:
Code: Select all
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.small.file bs=1024 count=102400
dd if=/dev/zero of=zero.file bs=1024
Now partition should be fully rewritten upon and the generated files can be deleted.
BUT: Still foremost find all the files...
How can one get rid of them and having foremost find nothing?
I would like to include a privacy checking app in pupngo to verify that empty disk space is...empty. And at the same time have an undelete app as well...for the last purpose foremost seems quite effective.
