It's 3:30 in the morning and I want Vista gone.
I just got a Lenovo Thinkpad and I have been dual booting Ubuntu (Hardy) with whatever Vista version they sent me.

I'm sick of having Windows and was wondering if there was a pain free way to make it go away without reinstalling Ubuntu.

If it has to do with managing the partitions, I'm lost.

If you got yourself the Ubuntu LiveCD, use it to format vista's partition. Just be sure that you're using Ubuntu's GRUB to load vista and Ubuntu.
Fix the GRUB menu by deleting the entry that vista uses.
