"ShredOS is a USB bootable (BIOS or UEFI) small linux distribution with
the sole purpose of securely erasing the entire contents of your disks
using the program nwipe. If you are familiar with dwipe from DBAN then
you will feel right at home with ShredOS and nwipe. What are the
advantages of nwipe over dwipe/DBAN? Well as everybody probably knows,
DBAN development stopped in 2015 which means it has not received any
further bug fixes or support for new hardware since that date. Nwipe
originally was a fork of dwipe but has continued to have improvements
and bug fixes and is now available in many Linux distros. ShredOS
hopefully will always provide the latest nwipe on a up to date Linux
kernel so it will support modern hardware."
"ShredOS supports either 32bit or 64bit processors. You will need to
download the appropriate 64bit or 32bit .img or .iso file, depending
upon your target processor and whether you want to burn ShredOS to a USB
memory stick, in which case you would download the .img file.
Alternatively, if you wanted to burn ShredOS to CD/DVD, then you would
download the .iso file."
