The easy way to remove linix pariition is go to windows and remove linux partion. before that you make windows 98 bootable floppy ready. After that reboot system with win 98 boot floppy and erase mbr by giving the cmd fdisk /mbr
The basic funda is you need to remove grub from MBR ie 1st 512 bytes. if any problem feel free to ask.

Hi June,
Am I correct in assuming that you will remove your linux partition and
make it a windows partition and that a windows os is installed? If so,
you can use windows' partitioning utility. A third party commercial
partitioning utility would also do the same thing safely (pqmagic,
acronis).
regards,
Mike

The best example of rabid nationalism and its effects occured before
World War II in Germany. Hint: one of the political parties involved
is the NSDAP.
