I'm glad to see you're getting the kinks out.

I installed Ubuntu a couple of weeks ago. I've finally just about got everything where I want it, but, my god, has it taken some fancy finagling.

Although, I must admit...I've a definite sense of accomplishment.

Alright, I'm in Disk Management, but from here I don't see how to completely erase the harddrive. My options are to format the drive to NTFS and that's it. I can delete the partition, but that basically takes it off of Window's seeing it, and nothing else.
Yeah, delete the partition. Windows will still see it just not as a formatted, ready-to-go drive. Most install programs will label as 'free space.'
