Try GDISK. It's more flexible than DoS fdisk. I use in on my laptop to create/delete Linux partitions many times.

Note: DoS won't delete logical non-DoS partitions. You need to use something else to delete them. For example you could use "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda count=1" to nuke ALL partitions on /dev/hda or simply use Linux's fdisk to delete those parts (or change their type to a DoS one) Rainer -- KeyID=58341901 fingerprint=A5 57 04 B3 69 88 A1 FB 78 1D B5 64 E0 BF 72 EB
