i encrypted a partition with cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -y -s 256 luksFormat /dev/sda6 but forgot to wipe the data first :-) now i thought to write simply a zero-file on the encrypted partition to fill the whole space.
Why not just fill the file system with data - copy files from somewhere, anywhere, until it's full. Then delete them again. That way just about all of the partition will be rewritten with encrypted data.
