About:
Darik's Boot and Nuke (DBAN) is a self-contained boot floppy that securely
wipes the hard disks of most computers. DBAN will automatically and
completely delete the contents of any hard disk that it can detect, which
makes it an appropriate utility for bulk or emergency data destruction.

Changes:
This release will wipe the last odd sector on disks with odd sector counts.
All known bugs in the first version 1 release have been fixed.

Release focus: Minor bugfixes
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Project URL: http://freshmeat.net/projects/dban/

Scary proposition; I wouldn't even want the disk laying around; kids might
get it and say 'Hmmm, lets see what this does'. LOL
