I believe that's incorrect. One often first needs to boot into Linux
and use fdisk to remove or reformat (in fat32 or ntfs, if possible).
At least some Windows CDs simply won't see a Linux partition and will
say there is no available disk.
However, unlike Linux, MS tends to document things very well, at least
from the sysadmin's viewpoint. (Programmers tell me the opposite is the
case in programming documentation). Searching the MS knowledge base
using terms like reformat Linux partition should give you a result where
they walk you through it.

Sounds thrilling. And M.I.T. is a clearasil ad with housing, and Yale
is a dumping ground for those who didn't get into Harvard.
