Ok,
u all saying that fdisk doesnt work. Well, i had to reinstall linx about 6
times, (befor i understeand it) and al the times i cleaned up my disk whit
fdisk. Not that i ame saying that it is a great thing, it is only easy to
use.
What u must do, is firt delete the non logical partitions. then u one by one
and restart all the times. So, u do this 3 times. The swap first then the
other two. Now you can delete windows.
Restart again and se what for size you have now. If all goos good, u have
now one partition. exit fdisk. go to A: . There you type fdisk /MBR to clean
up the Master Boot Sector. To check if you have formated the hole disk, type
in the
a: fdisk /STATUS
this will show what the status is of you hd.

If you did good, you now have one disk.
