I'm looking for a quick way of wiping a disk, in the way that "format 
/q/u" does. That is - wipe the FAT and be done with it. No need to go 
through the whole disk deleting files one at a time.

Why not use format /q/u, I hear you ask? Well, because it only works on 
floppy disks. I can't use it to wipe, for example, a hard disk, a ZIP 
disk, or a stacked (compressed) disk. Doing these things is, of-course, 
dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, but I *do* know what I'm 
doing and not being able to do it is frustrating!

("Wipe" was probably a poor choice of wording. I'm not interested in the 
security implications - I don't need the data to be removed from the disk 
so thoroughly that the US government can't get it off. I just want the 
disk to report "empty" and allow me to put new files on it.)

Any ideas? 

Mark.
