I've got several Quantum drives I need to wipe before being sold. When I boot with the DBAN floppy/cd I get the information below. I've tried both the beta version and 1.0.3 with the same results. All of the info below is copied/pasted directly from the log dban0000.tgz file. I don't understand why the wipe is failing. Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks
