There are a couple options here. First, you can use dd to wipe out the first 1M or more, to get rid of both partitions. But I'd use this as a last resort.
Second, you can use fdisk to delete that partition, and start over again. If that is a 4G card, and showing a 7.1G partition. Thats definitely wrong, and needs to be dealt with. I've had it happen to me once or twice, manipulating partitions manually. Not sure how exactly, but in each case it was fixable.
