I have a hard drive that is formatted for Linux which I bought to use as a secondary storage drive for Windows XP. Of course Windows won't even show the drive because Windows doesn't recognize a hard drive formatted for Linux.
Does Kubuntu offer a way, such as fdisk, for COMPLETELY removing all Linux partitioning and formatting, so that a hard drive can once again be formatted for Windows? Or is this hard drive usable ONLY by a Linux system, such as Kubuntu, from now on?
Because if that is the case, everybody is wasting a LOT of perfectly good hard drives by using them to install Kubuntu, or Ubuntu, or Fedora, or even Solaris, just to find out if they like using them.
