Probably there are still the filesystem magic bytes written in the boot |
| 12 |
sector (first 512 bytes). I think overwriting them should do the trick, |
| 13 |
but I'd like a second opinion on this, before I advice you to do |
| 14 |
"dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1" (but if there isn't any |
| 15 |
data on that drive, then go and try this...) |
