Hi Brian,
May I suggest that the disk- and partitioning- dialog is supplied with a 
feature similar to my "zeroing out" of the drive, if a user selects "Use entire 
drive for Ubuntu"?

I've done both automatic and manual partitioning in this dialog, even
chose to "erase partitioning table" in the dialog a few times. None of
these options worked. Only when I nuked the drive with output from
/dev/zero, did the drive finally "reset" and no longer "contain a ufs2
filesystem".

I mean, how hard is it supposed to be to get rid of a ufs2 filesystem?
