	Gang,

	A 40G drive that I thought was bad (when trying to install W2K
	on the drive) may be entirely good.  I am trying to avoid having
	to buy a DOS/Win platform.  I've had both W2K and FBSD or Ubuntu
	on this one machine.  For various reasons I need one DOS machine.
	(Already have 7 or 8 *Nix servers.)   The Windows 2000 
	"Professional" CD find some other non-Windows partition and 
	press "D" and "L" as I will, the installation CD keeps
	complaining.  Eventually I have to hit F3 to quit.  So, nutshell,
	is there any way I can completely remove any trace of *Nix?
	-----I remember having a DOS floppy and typing an undocumented
	MBR \ command that wiped the drive clean of this boot record,
	but this was [mumble] years ago.

	thanks for any tips, y'all,

	gary
