Uninstall/Reformat HD

[Tia Haenni]

OK, I was waiting for an email like this. Ha ha. Yeah, I know it sounds
like I need counseling for wiping out a Linux distro and formatting it
for windoze. I have a good excuse, you see I am a work at home
programmer and I need to set up a testing environment similar to that of
a production system, which happens to be W2k Server. Since I do not use
the HD that Red Hat was on very much and I needed the disk space, and I
am out of drive bays on the box, I decided to give the darn thing back
to Windoze. Fear not, I have another box with a suitable HD that I can
load a Linux distro on. Hey, maybe I will bring it to the next meeting
and you can help me get it installed. :-)

No.

Friends don't let their friends do such things.  I would suggest getting

some counseling.  They could suggest several courses of treatment like 
substance abuse or user support groups.

I can understand that 'doze 2k is requiring ever increasing amounts of 
HD space, but if you MUST keep the offensive software on your machine, 
install another hard drive. Even the 20gb drives are cheaper than a 
'doze upgrade, and you get to keep dual boot and a decent OS on your 
machine!

The only alternative I can see is a radical cranial sphincterectomy to 
correct the condition caused by high levels of exposure to Microsoft 
FUD!  (grin!)
