    I successfully added DBAN to my Fog bootmenu with the wiki guide. However, after a short loading period DBAN goes straight to an ad for the commercial version without erasing the drive. I have tried several different parameters from the guide without any luck. What other alternatives are there for automatically hard drives?

      @cemicolin FOG has wiping functionality. Quick wipe just deletes the partition tables. normal does one pass, full does 4 passes. You’re free to change the full wipe mechanisms in the inits (requiring decompress -> change -> recompress) and make it so that it does a 7 pass.

      You can also try an older version of DBAN.

        @Wayne-Workman Great! I know how to use it as a task, but I’m not sure how to have it start automatically erasing a drive from the FOG bootmenu.

          @cemicolin Maybe make it your default item in the boot menu? Just a thought…

            @cemicolin Here…

            Keep in mind, making a WIPE task as the default item is ridiculously dangerous in a production environment… maybe don’t make it the default item?

              @Wayne-Workman Amazing! Thanks so much for the fast response! It is definitely not going into production, it has a dedicated switch and will be physically isolated from any network connections. Thinking about it, leaving default off is definitely for the best.

                @Wayne-Workman I’ve been having trouble getting this to work. I put in the configuration exactly as shown, and it’s just booting straight into Windows when I select that option and hit enter. I tried with default on and off. I also tried an older version of DBAN without any luck. I don’t have any problems if I add the device as a host and schedule a wipe task.

                  @cemicolin The menu item should be fog.fullwipe instead of Full Wipe
