Hi
upgrading fedora to version 35 I decided to install the OS completely from
zero again, instead of doing the normal upgrade.
I have a laptop with two HDDs: / dev / sda (on which windows is installed)
and / dev / sdb (on which fedora 33 was previously installed).
Of course I will install Fedora 35 on the ADD / dev / sdb .., but I would
like to completely clean up the old installation by formatting the old data
using gparted.
A fedora install using the defaults (btrfs) "destroys" the old data. If
you are looking for a method that would prevent recovery of sensitive data
(e.g.), if the laptop is stolen and the sensitive information was not
encrypted, there are "secure" erase tools..
I would like to ask for help about to choose the pertizioni to leave and
those to format .. starting from the current situation that I transcribe
below:
