(copy) DBAN vs nwipe

source: https://sourceforge.net/p/dban/discussion/208932/thread/cb591b59/

Question:
Trouble in running DBAN on Dell notebook (Vista Home Premium, 64-bit).
Booted from the CD, but got the "PCI sysfs" error and the program just hung.
Based on research in this forum, tried seeing if there was a media card reader needed to disable - but not find one.
Came across another good suggestion - using the "nwipe" ISO (forked from DBAN‘s dwipe) included in Parted Magic.

This method seems to be working (DoD Short wiping is ongoing), but want to make sure DoD Short on nwipe is just as effective as DoD short on DBAN.
Parted Magic has a GUI and I was instructed to remove the boot media after Parted Magic booted completely.
Just wondering how nwipe successfully erases hard drive without destroying itself in the process.
I don‘t believe I created a partition of any kind - when Parted Magic booted, I just started nwipe.

Answer:
I‘m the author of nwipe, and can tell you that the wiping code for DBAN and nwipe is exactly the same (nwipe is a fork of the DBAN software).
Therefore, the effectiveness of the wipe is identical.

Parted Magic loads itself into memory, which means the CD can be removed.
It doesn‘t rely on a hard disk to store anything, which allows it to completely wipe the disk without affecting itself.

使用Second Copy同步ftp服务器的差异文件

公司一直用自主开发的一个同步工具来进行数据库文件异机备份的,但无奈太不稳定,三天两头出现服务挂死的问题,特别是最近这1个月,几天就1次. 问题现象都是服务一直在运行,但没有复制文件到备份机上,而且备份服务重启需要2个小时到2天…… 原因估计是网络问题导致文件共享复制中断,无法结束正在复制文件的这个进程而引起的.具体原因不想深究,那是个无底洞. 所以前天开始,就开始在各大软件网站和论坛中,搜索满足需求的同步软件,要求如下: 软件安装在客户端,通过ftp服务,定期从服务器上下载差异文件 支持设置执行

angular.copy和angular.extend

angular.copy用于深复制,而angular.extend用于拓展.     angular.copy(src,[dst]) src:源对象 dst:目标对象,复制的对象 js中 '= '操作符复制的是指针,所以前后两个变量指向的还是内存中的同一个对象,所以在其中一个变量上操作该对象时,对另外一个变量也会生效.而angular.copy方法是深复制,会在内存中再生成一个对象,两个变量彼此独立,互不影响. 接收一个必须参数src,一个可选参数dst.如果dst没有提供,就会创建对象或者数组

assign,copy,strong,weak,nonatomic的具体理解

例子: NSString *houseOfMM = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:'MM的三室两厅']; 上面一段代码会执行以下两个动作:  1 在堆上分配一段内存用来存储@' MM的三室两厅 ' ,比如:内存地址为 0X1111  内容为 ' MM的三室两厅' ,  2 在栈上分配一段内存用来存储 houseForWife ,比如:地址为 0XAAAA  内容自然为 0X1111 下面分别看下(assign,retain,copy):  1.assign的情

assign, retain, weak, strong, copy,unsafe_unretain

readonly, readwrite:是控制属性的访问权限,readonly只生成getter方法,其他类是无法修改其值的.readwrite是会同时生成getter和setter方法,其他类可以修改其值. assign, retain, weak, strong, copy,unsafe_unretained:在non-ARC中,assign和retain是一组,assign的对象属性引用计数不变,而retain会被+1.对应的在ARC中,weak和strong是一组,weak的对象属性引用

python copy

import copya = [1, 2, 3, 4, ['a', 'b']]  #原始对象b = a  #赋值,传对象的引用c = copy.copy(a)  #对象拷贝,浅拷贝d = copy.deepcopy(a)  #对象拷贝,深拷贝a.append(5)  #修改对象aprint a [1, 2, 3, 4, ['a', 'b'], 5] >>> print b [1, 2, 3, 4, ['a', 'b'], 5] >>> print c [1, 2, 3,

copy, retain, assign , readonly , readwrite,strong,weak,nonatomic整理

copy:建立一个索引计数为1的对象,然后释放旧对象 对NSString对NSString 它指出,在赋值时使用传入值的一份拷贝.拷贝工作由copy方法执行,此属性只对那些实行了NSCopying协议的对象类型有效.更深入的讨论,请参考“复制”部分. retain:释放旧的对象,将旧对象的值赋予输入对象,再提高输入对象的索引计数为1对其他NSObject和其子类对参数进行release旧值,再retain新值指定retain会在赋值时唤醒传入值的retain消息.此属性只能用于Objective

如果将synthesize省略,语义特性声明为assign retain copy时,自己实现setter和getter方法

如果将synthesize省略,并且我们自己实现setter和getter方法时,系统就不会生成对应的setter和getter方法,还有实例变量 1,当把语义特性声明为assign时,setter和getter时方法内部实现 - (void)setName:(NSString *)name{ _name = name; } - (NSString *)name{ return _name; } 2,当把语义特性声明为retain时,setter和getter方法内部实现 - (void)set

svn: is already a working copy for a different url 解决办法

svnX    svn: E155000: '/Users/mac/Desktop/SHiosProject/SVNmangerfiles/wuye'   is already a working copy for a different URL 首先说明下原因: 出现这种情况大多是由于原有的目录是使用svn更新的,并且指定了一个更新的url,比如说 http://192.168.10.1/svn/xxx,如果此url由于某种原因无法使用,而换成了http://192.168.10.2/svn/
