Aaron,

Well the first issue is... what's currently on the partition?  In other
words, is there data there?  Is it currently being mounted during boot up?

If it's not being used, but is being mounted, simply comment out the line in
/etc/fstab and Linux won't give a hoot about it any longer.  You can then
use it for whatever your heart desires.

Subject: Removing Partition


I have been trying to figure out how to remove a partition from Linux and
would like to ask if anyone can give me some direction. I have a 3GB
partition that I would like to use for installing  Win2K on. What I would
like to do is remove this partition from Linux before installing Win on it.
How can I do this? If I just went ahead and installed Win2K onto the 3BG
partition would it cause Linux to fail during boot. And if it makes any
difference the 3BG partition is currently empty.

Thanks,

Aaron
