Autoclave normally creates a floppy disk image. I am sure that there is a way to
run from boot CD, but I have never looked into that. It does more then clean the
files off the drive, it will scrub any magnetic shadow images of the data. This
is overkill unless you plan on passing a drive off to someone else and want to
make sure that the data will never be recovered. FDISK should be fine. PCSOFT
has many good guides for this. http://freepctech.com/guides.shtml
