Hi Patrick,
in fact i can delete everything on this HDD as i formatted it...backup was done before :)
i just found also something similar.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=446 count=1
where /dev/sda should be replaced by my HDD value.

Hi,
i formatted my HDD where before i had windows 7 installed, in order to
install new fedora 18.
however after fedora installation, HDD does not boot on grub but still
on former windows boot manager.
How ca i do to REALLY remove this stupid windows 7 boot manager ?
thx
Make sure you don't delete data you do not want to lose. You do have a backup of your important data right?
Regards,
Patrick
