Exterminating WindoxXP
« on: September 01, 2005, 11:55:39 AM »
I currently have a partioned hard drive on my laptop, with both XP and Linux Suse 9.1. I want to remove XP completely and replace 9.1 with 9.3, which I have just purchased.
What is the best way of banishing XP while also ensuring the whole hard drive is given over to Suse 9.3?

To tell the truth, I don't think there is anything on my laptop I want to keep. I brought it for uni and besides a bit of playing around on it, I have done nothing serious which I want keeping. I couldn't see much point using it until I got to uni.

How do I delete the partition? When I install 9.3, how can I be sure XP will not still be on there?
