RE: help : format ibm t30 - ⓢⓤⓕⓕⓘⓒⓔ - 02-17-2011 If you want to get rid of everything that you have on that computer I would suggest making a ISO disk of a program called, "Dariks Boot and Nuke". This is extremely helpful if you are trying to do a clean install of another OS. Download Link You can run this program from a USB. Just follow the directions here. Keep in mind this is a very powerful program and it is recommended you use backup anything either on a external HDD or another computer.
