Hi Stacy, The easiest way I've found, but it's probably overkill:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/cXtXdXp0 bs=4096k count=4096 This gets you all set up to re-fdisk the disk and wipes any information at the beginning of the physical fdisk partition. Substitute the "X" for your disk device you want to wipe. My parameters are probably a bit big, but it seems to work out nicely for me when I want to re-initialize a disk.
