Hi, installed Ubuntu a few days ago as a dual boot, had some severe problems with it (hasn't put me off Linux, just means I'm gonna have to learn a little more, I plan on installing Ubuntu on an old computer we don't use anymore to play around with), and decided to uninstall. Had some issues there too, but I received several suggestions to goto Super Grub Disk for help. I did, and it appears that I've reset my MBR. Here's the problem: SOMEHOW I loaded Ubuntu onto a 120 GB external Maxtor harddrive, and now that I've wiped Ubuntu out, I only have 5 GBs of usable space on the HD. I chalk that up to Ubuntu being on it (had to have the external on to boot ubuntu); my question is, how do I free up the HD and get the other stuff off?
