UEFI Boot + DBAN.bzi = Error
-
Let me also add that I am running 1.5.0-RC-9 SVN 6080
-
The DBAN.bzi file must be an EFI bootable file too. Maybe need to use an updated version of DBAN? I don’t know fully after that though.
-
@BREIT You might start by posting your exact iPXE command lines so we can have a look. Do you use the iPXE binaries provided by FOG or did you compile your own ones?
Have you tried on different hardware models? Always the exact same error? Which version of DBAN do you use?
Probably also good to take a picture of the error as there is sometimes a small hint for us that you would not spot on your own.

As of where I stopped yesterday here are my Parameters:
:dban
initrd ${boot-url}/iso/dban/dban230.iso
chain memdisk iso rawAll binaries are provided by FOG, I have not complied my own
Have you tried on different hardware models? Always the exact same error?
I have tried 2 different models same error.
Which version of DBAN do you use?
DBAN 2.3.0
Probably also good to take a picture of the error as there is sometimes a small hint for us that you would not spot on your own.
I will make sure to check it out. THANKS!

I have also tried to chainload the bzImage with the dban.bzi file but it causes a Kernel Panic.

Well, seeing the picture of the error seems to be a little bit more helpful.
Pretty sure memdisk isn’t what you want to use here, that’d be more if you were using ISO directly. Please remove this line from the DBAN items.
Can you try:

I suspect, then, this is because DBAN is not EFI bootable currently.

Yeah, seams like Tom is right: https://superuser.com/questions/1170486/how-to-install-dban-dariks-boot-and-nuke-on-an-usb-flash-drive-larger-than-4g
Dban hasn’t really been maintained in a while. I’d go for a UEFI capable linux distro and either shred or nwipe instead.
Sorry, there is nothing we can do about it.

Well looks like i have my answer to my problem. Thanks for the help.
