#76 mount: mounting /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/usb failed: No such file or directory

[Dimitri Papadopoulos]

I was able to wipe the disks of a Dell Optiplex 980 desktop with DBAN 2.3.0. However the messages emitted when trying to save the logs are puzzling:

DBAN succeeded.
All selected disks have been wiped.

Not sure where DBAN attempts to write the logs, perhaps the bootable USB key DBAN runs from. Does it work or not?
