Notable changes in this release

  • Includes 32 bit time compatibility to fix futex issue on 32 bit versions of shredos.

Nwipe changes from 0.32.014 to 0.32.023

  • Fix a problem in the 32 bit build displaying a very large & incorrect number for sector, block and device sizes in the log.
  • Fixes a problem that might have caused temperatures to be unavailable on Debian systems, but not necessarily on distros based on Debian like Ubuntu which would have worked ok. This was due to the variation in the location of the modprobe command in different distros.
  • Improve thread cancellation error reporting.
  • Fix missing serial number on some SAS drives
  • Add Isaac64 pseudo random number generator. Isaac64 automatically selected on 64bit systems, Isaac automatically selected on 32bit systems, the user can override these selections if they wish.
  • Fix a issue with the Gutmann wipe. The eight random passes (four at the start of a wipe and four at end) along with the deterministic passes were all being permuted when only the non random passes needed to be permuted.

Known issues

  • hexedit help screen doesn't work. This is due to groff (nroff) missing and not being available in either buildroot or busybox. I'm hoping to eventually pull this package in from github. If anybody would like to submit a PR for this, please feel free.
  • In legacy mode shredos's default terminal resolution is 640x480, occasionally you may come across a monitor that will not display this resolution, shredos has booted but you can't see it. This can be corrected by changing the default shredos resolution in legacy mode to 1024x768, most monitors appear to accept that resolution. This is accomplished by editing the grub.cfg file. See how-to-make-a-persistent-change-to-the-terminal-resolution. The default 640x480 legacy resolution may be changed to 1024x768 in a future release if requests are made for this change. UEFI resolution tends to be the native resolution of the monitor or no lower than 1024x768.

Note

  • The .img file for writing to a USB flash drive is both legacy (bios) and UEFI bootable.
  • The .iso file for CD-R/DVD-R is legacy bootable only. Will be UEFI bootable on a future release.

Notable changes in this release

  • New buildroot release v2021.08.2, based on the 5.13.19 kernel.
  • Upgraded nwipe from 0.32.003 to 0.32.014 master.
  • Better UEFI support.
    • bootx64.efi has been rebuild with the extra grub modules efi_gop, efi_uga and progress.
    • During UEFI boot, the Recalbox message has been replaced with the message booting shredos along with a progress display as shredos.img is read from the USB device.
    • Fixes issues on UEFI systems that booted shredos but there was no display.
  • Telnet support. Adding telnetd=enable to the kernel command line in /boot/grub/grub.cfg or /EFI/BOOT/grub.cfg will activate the telnet server. This can be used for headless systems or systems with faulty display hardware. It could even be used to start nwipe on multiple headless systems from a single PC on the local LAN giving you the ability to control and monitor the wipes on all servers. See how-to-wipe-drives-on-headless-systems-or-systems-with-faulty-display-hardware-for-use-on-secure-lans-only
  • Upgraded hdparm from v9.58 to v9.62
  • Upgraded smartctl (smartmontools) from v7.1 to v7.2
  • Tidied up the github commit history. As we are not interested in the buildroot commit history only shredos commits you will find the github commit history starts with a initial commit on this new buildroot version.
  • Past repositories of shredos based on older kernels will now be renamed as shredos.x86_64_[build root version], i.e https://github.com/PartialVolume/shredos.x86_64_2020.05
  • The latest shredos URL will always be https://github.com/PartialVolume/shredos.x86_64 for 64 bit systems and https://github.com/PartialVolume/shredos.i686 for 32 bit systems.

New in this release

This contains the master release of nwipe that features drive temperature monitoring during the wipe and after the wipe has finished. When provided by the drive, the actual, min, max, lower critical and upper critical temperature values are retrieved.

temp1_input		Current drive temperature
temp1_lcrit		Minimum temperature limit. Operating the device below
			this temperature may cause physical damage to the
			device.
temp1_min		Minimum recommended continuous operating limit
temp1_max		Maximum recommended continuous operating temperature
temp1_crit		Maximum temperature limit. Operating the device above
			this temperature may cause physical damage to the
			device.
temp1_lowest		Minimum temperature seen this power cycle
temp1_highest		Maximum temperature seen this power cycle

In regards to the meaning of the colours that are used to display temperature:

Color/status of temperature readout Meaning
White Within operating temperature
Red Maximum continuous operating temperature reached
Red Flashing Critical temperature reached, damage may occur
Black Minimum continuous operating temperature reached
Black flashing Minimum critical temperature reached, damage may occur

New in this release

  • FTP auto export of logs: If the host's ethernet port is connected to a network, Shredos will request an IP address via DHCP, so that lftp can be used to automatically transfer nwipe's drive status logs to a ftp server on the local area network. By appending the following command to the kernel command line in /boot/grub/grub.cfg and /EFI/BOOT/grub.cfg shredos will automatically transfer log files to a ftp server. Example: lftp="open 192.168.1.60; user your-username your-password; cd data; mput nwipe_*.txt". A guide to configuring Shredos to automatically send logs to a ftp server, can be found in the README.md here ..transferring nwipe log files to a ftp server. Drive status logs and certificates to be added in the next version of Shredos.
  • Boot Progress indicator: Added a progress indicator when the linux image file is being loaded from USB. Only really useful for older V1/1.1 USB which can take 50 seconds to load. V2+ USB loads in less than a second with 5 seconds to boot in nwipe so the progress indicator will show as 100% on modern hardware.
  • Raid driver support: Also includes all the drivers mentioned in the pre-releases v2020.05.013_x86_0.31 and v2020.05.014_x86_0.31.
  • Nwipe v0.32: Nwipe has been updated to v0.32 and includes the following changes:
  • Ones wipe method added: Add ones (0xFF) wipe to the methods. Renamed Zero Fill to Fill with Zeros and the new ones wipe, is called Fill with Ones.
  • Ones verification added: Add ones verification to the methods. Renamed Verify Blank to Verify Zeros (0x00) and the new verification is called Verify Ones (0xFF).
  • Method information, moved and updated: Move method information from below the list of methods to the right of the method list. This allows better use of the screen space by allowing more methods to be added to the list, especially relevant to nwipe running as a standalone application on small distros such as shredos 2020 in frame buffer mode.
  • Remove redundant help text: Removed the old DBAN syslinux.cfg configuration hints as not relevant to nwipe. See nwipe --help or man nwipe for command line options.
  • Update error summary table: Add fdatasync errors to the error summary table.
  • Image persistence mitigation: During a wipe, you can now toggle between dark screen, blank screen and default blue screen by repeatedly pressing the b key. Dark screen, which is grey text on black background has been introduced to prevent TFT/LCD image persistence on monitors that are sensitive to that issue. However, according to this article grey text on a white background may be preferable. I will probably add that option in the next release along with possibly powering off the display as an additional option.

New in this release

Updated nwipe to v0.31

IMPORTANT ! #322 Non functional Isaac prng is a security update. Of specific importance for anybody that might use --prng=isaac as one of nwipe's command line options. Significantly less important if you select Isaac from the GUI although still relevant, as mersenne is used not issac, despite what the GUI says. Putting --prng=isaac on the command line causes at best zeros to be written instead of a random stream, at worst the contents of a uninitialized buffer. See my comments in #322. Note, this bug existed in all previous versions of nwipe and also still exists in DBAN 2.3.0 within dwipe. Now fixed in nwipe, but as DBAN is no longer actively maintained, another reason to upgrade from DBAN to nwipe 0.31.

includes the following changes:

  • Blanking disabled in GUI for OPS2 (mandatory requirement of standard). #326
  • Total bytes written/read for ALL passes or verifications are now logged. #326
  • Final blanking being enabled is no longer required for verification passes. GUI Fix. #326
  • Add a summary table to the log that shows totals for pass & verification errors. #325
  • Fix the missing 'Verifying' message on final blanking. #324
  • Fix prng selection always using mersenne irrespective of whatever prng the user selected. #323
  • Fix a non functional Isaac prng. (May have never worked even in DBAN/dwipe 2.3.0). #322
  • Log whether the prng produces a stream, if not log failure message. #321
  • Log the specific prng that is initialised. #320
