    What, specifically, have you already done and what Liunx piece (LILO maybe) is still hanging around?

    Erasing LInux

    Code:
    root@devel rob # fdisk /dev/hda
     
    The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 9729.
    There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
    and could in certain setups cause problems with:
    1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
    2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
       (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
     
    Command (m for help):
    
    print out your partitions
    Code:
    Command (m for help): p
     
    Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
     
       Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
    /dev/hda1   *           1          15      120456   83  Linux
    /dev/hda2              16         198     1469947+  82  Linux swap
    /dev/hda3             199        9729    76557757+  83  Linux
     
    Command (m for help):
    
    
    then "d" is to delete then choose the partition number from highest to lowest like for mine example
    d
    3
    d
    2
    d
    1
    then w to write information

    Code:
    root@devel rob # uname -a
    Linux devel 2.6.7 #8 SMP Fri Jul 2 20:14:47 MDT 2004 i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
    root@devel rob #
    
    :D
    hope that helps
