but guys the old 'Gutmann's research paper' doesn't properly clearify a PRACTICAL way to sanatise the RAM. Ya ofcource, without physically destroying it. (anyone? who good idea on this topic???) say; i have to sanatize my 512mb RAM. Which would be more better to implement in immidiate emergency? a). within the next 5 minutes completely overwrite my RAM (say) 5 x 60 = 300 times with a bootable media after reboot. or b). With a bootable media after reboot do some complete random wipes first. Hold the memory like that for next 10 minutes and repeat this same process several times. Feel free to point me to some kernel modules (if any?) that can be used to transperently encrypt the I/O of RAM once system boots up and basic drivers are loded. I need some recomendations on 'proper' RAM sanitization! -bipin
