Thanks, Bryan, for the link. But I have a couple of questions...
First of all, is it safe to follow the procedure? I am somewhat concerned about the prospect of getting into a situation where I cannot recover anything, i.e., I might have to toss away the hard drive...
Also, do I have to make a boot diskette? I don't have a floppy drive. If I can make a bootable CD, which OS should I use?
Thanks, in advance.

If you really want to clear the harddrive quickly use a zero fill like wipe
