You don't need this wipedisk thing. It's just silly to wipe a flash memory card because every unnecessary write access reduces its life time.
 
.

Hi, Do want you want to do thomas but dont say what is silly or not its only your opinion , for me wipedisk work fine all the time its another way to do, there is many ways to prepare a CF for install Amiga systems your method is one more of the rest , just better say "For me wipedisk way its not good " disqualify the other is not good education what silly?? , Every one have his method to do the things.
 
Respect the others opinions.
