I decided to dump the RAID and the Windows 7 and just start from
scratch.  I tried 9.10, but could not get it to boot.  I am still having
problems with 10.04 as well, but here is one issue.

When I look at the disk utility, it reports that I have a 750 GB ATA
drive on Port 1 of PATA Host adapter, and a 750 GB ATA drive on Port 2
of PATA Host adapter.

Then under Peripheral Devices, I have a 699 MB File
(filesystem.squashfs), which I infer is my LiveCD and a 750 GB Hard
Disk.  If I try to delete this partition, it says One or more block
devices are holding /dev/mapper/isw_bifgdfbbc_Volume0 and it won't let
me delete the partition.

GParted, reports that I have unallocated /dev/sda of 698.64 GiB.  Where
is the rest of it?  And the same thing for /dev/sdb.  They both say
unallocated.  How can there be a partition, which I cannot delete on a
drive that is unallocated?  Where are the other 51.36 GB?  Why do I have
this peripheral 750 GB Hard Disk?  Why not two of them?

How do I wipe out everything and start with a clean slate and just
install some version of Ubuntu?

Thanks,
Herb
