Hi!

Again, an ignorant question (as usual):

How might I do something similar to

# dd if=/dev/one of=/dev/sd0 bs=1M

as a complement to the usual and well-described

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd0 bs=1M

Personally, given your premise of "paran0id disk-wiping", then I would
take the next step of checking if a non-random sequence of "0"s are
still on the device. Are you ready for that rabbit h0le ?? hehehe ;-)

# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sd0 bs=1M

in order to achieve paranoid disk-wiping?
