RE: How to uninstall Linux

You will probably have to re-partition your hard drive. Windows won't know how to access your Linux partition (this is assuming its ext2). Use fdisk to delete the partitions used by RedHat and then set up a new partition for Windows. The easiest way to do this is to use a bootable Windows or DOS floppy with the 'fdisk' propgram installed on it. Once the hard drive is re-partitioned, install Windows as you normally would. Hope this helps.
