'shred' command for your target?

I'm not sure what you really need (sorry, I don't understand your explanation).

When 'shred' is required for your target:

Run "ptxdist menuconfig"
  Shell & Console Tools           --->
          <*> coreutils                       --->
                [*] shred

and you are done after running "ptxdist go" again.

Juergen
