[Techtalk] clean the swap partition

[Alvin Goats]

My fav is secure-delete:

http://www.thc.org

srm - secure remove
smem - secure RAM space delete
sswap - secure swap space/disk wipe
sfill - secure blank space wipe

Writes 0's, 1's, FF's and random numbers that are written in all disk
interlace formats so that all space is destroyed, followed by more 0's,
1's, etc for a total of 38 passes. This is followed by attacking the
inodes. Nothing really recoverable after that.

Works on most all filesystems and says which filesystems are not so good
(I believe Novel's was one).
