[LUG] Erasing HDD

 


Posted by "John Hansen" <john.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


I was upgrading from Kubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 yesterday. All went well until the last 
stage when an error message appeared. Subsequently I was unable to get beyond the 
loading of the Ubuntu kernel and then the screen went black.
I suppose the best is to erase the HDD and do a clean installation of either 6.06 or 
7.04 as I have CDs for both these versions. The problem is that I am not sure how to 
erase the HDD so perhaps a kind soul will advise me. There is no other OS on the HDD.


Thanks in advance.

John
