Steps
Given I have started Tails from DVD without network and logged in 9.022
And I prepare Tails for memory erasure tests 0.450
When I plug and mount a 128 MiB USB drive with a vfat filesystem 7.815
Then I find very few patterns in the guest's memory 4.894 
Pattern coverage: 0.000% (0 MiB out of 866 MiB reference memory)
# write cache
When I fill the USB drive with a known pattern 2.474
Then patterns cover at least 86% of the test FS size in the guest's memory 5.013
85.505% 
85.505% of the test FS size (127.599609375 MiB) has the pattern, but more than 86.000% was expected.
<false> is not true. (Test::Unit::AssertionFailedError)
