Hello Has someone ever tried to wipe a block device on freebsd 6.2 with bcwipe? I tried bcwipe -bvmd /dev/aacd1 I get: Writing to /dev/aacd1: Invalid argument I tried slices too but it i got the same error. dd can overwrite my disk several times but perhaps someone can give me a hint how to wipe a disk with bcwipe.
