Thank you Darac for your input.
Here's an update on what I'm doing now.
I caused the RAID1 mirrors to complete the sync in a dropbear boot
environment.
Now I'm writing /dev/zero to the crypt mounted volumes. No changes yet
to the form of the command, but if I see troubles, then I'll consider
dropping block size and use cat as you suggest.
There is a long way to go before the /dev/zero writing will be done, I'm
going to get some sleep soon and check it later.
Kind Regards
