I'm trying to find a usb bootable linux distro which is command line only.
I only need it to be capable of performing the secure erase features on recent ATA hard drives.... ie
hdparm -I /dev/X
hdparm --user-master u --security-set-pass Eins /dev/X
time hdparm --user-master u --security-erase Eins /dev/X
That's it!
I have been using Ubuntu in the past but it's a bit overkill for these three commands!
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Many Thanks!
