- Hi;
-
- I just decided to remove my Linux partition for the time being till I get
- a better machine or bigger harddisk. Well when I repartitioned my harddisk,
- reformatted it then rebooted I noticed that shoelace is still on it.
- ie. it would display the partition table. Well my question is how do I get
- rid of it. It's a bit annoying since there's only one partition to boot from.
- It wouldn't be too bad if it defaulted to booting partition 1 but apparently
- by using edpart, partition 1 becomes 3 and 2 becomes 4 so now partition 3
- is the default but it doesn't exist.
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
