Well, I am assuming you are using a dos-based windows. 1. Make a DOS boot floppy if you don't already have one 2. Boot into linux and login as root. 3. If you are in console mode, stay there. If you are in some desktop, open up a terminal. 4. from the command line # fdisk /dev/hdb or hdc or hdd, whichever is the linux disk p prints the artition table on the screen d deletes a numbered partition keep on with p and d until all linux partitions and any extended partition enclosing them are gone. w writes out the partition table to disk Then put your DOS boot floppy into the machine and # reboot When you get the A:> prompt from DOS A:> fdisk /mbr And yes the forward slash is correct. Remove the floppy and reset, Now you can use windows fdisk to partition the space where linux was, and FORMAT E: ,etc to format the partitions you make. Then no part of your computer will belong to you any longer, but If that is what you choose, so be it. Civileme
