"sanitizing" disks: wiping swap, non-allocated space, and file-tails

[David Kreil]

Dear cpghost,

Thanks for your fast and helpful comment.

The Handbook describes a basic gdbe setup but mentions that getting other 
volumes (like /home) onto a gdbe partition was trickier.
Can you tell me which volumes you have on gdbe and what was required to get 
this working?
I wonder, in particular, how "system" directories like /var would be kept on a 
gdbe partition.

With many thanks again for your help

and best regards,

David.
