    I'm currently dual-booting XP and OS X on my AOA150-1570 and am going to sell it to a friend (so I can upgrade to the new one, heheh) and he's requested that I uninstall OSX so he can have the extra drive space to store his music (he's a DJ). How would I go about uninstalling OS X? I'm using the voodoo Kernel if that makes a difference.

    Thanks.

    You cant uninstall an operating system, only format the partition it is on

    To remove the bootloader and add that volume back to usable memory for the XP installation, I'm guessing after that all I need to do is attach my external dvd-rom, put in an XP CD and run fixmbr from the recovery console, right? Anything further?
