Use a DOS FDISK and nuke all the partitions.

As an alternative, the DiskDruid tool that ships with Linux will allow you
to delete any partition that you want - don't want to dual boot to Win95,
delete that partition.

Subject: OT: Linux question


Hey All,

(I'm for sure OT - private replies thanks)

I'd like to create a dedicated Linux only system, but the install info with
my distribution of RedHat5.0 only has procedures for re-partitioning an
exisiting drive, and creating a dual-boot install with Win95.

Anyone know how to do this?
