Hello, I was wondering, how do I uninstall Ubuntu from my hard drive. I accidentally installed it about 5 times. Any way I could uninstall all but 1?

Open g-parted and delete the partitions from there.

Make sure next time, you tell them to do it from the liveCD environment, so the system can be unmounted.

a) if you have windows and ubuntu is on another drive
- right click the drive and format it.
b) installed through wubi
- go to add/remove software in windows and uninstall windows
c) no windows
- pop the live cd in and format with gparted

by the way, i fail to understand how someone can 'accidently' install ubuntu 5 times

ocd?

Or s/he forgot to remove the CD/DVD,
Or s/he didn't know the difference between the livecd and the desktop,
etc.
