Post subject:  Partition question

I have a Linux partition on my comp that I do not need anymore.
How do I delete partitions?
Windows XP Home

probably the easiest solution is to put the XP install disk in and let it boot from the cdrom (you may need to fiddle with your bios settings to do this)

then just choose the Linux partition and delete it and reallocate the space to a new windows partition.

If you have a pertition manager such as LILO or Partition magic it is much easier...

Yeah it seems once you start down the path to the darkside you cannot stop yourself.

beleieve me I am much happier when I am not tinkering with my windows box, then again with the game being down so much lately I might as well get it all done with now.

a tip with partitioning:

Power outage while moving a partition = very bad news!

I lost 25Gb that way last January.
