Hi All,
I have a fedora 30 bootable flash drive. /dev/sda5 is my "Linux
Swap". To zero out my swap space to make it more friendly
with gzip?
I would try just dd'ing /dev/zero across it, but I am afraid I
might break some file structure or some other stuff.
Many thanks,

I found this:
# swapoff -a
# swapon -a
But does it zero out the bits?
