Now want to remove os and data inside the hard disc.

Hi,

I have different type of question with the same title.

My system has two disks and Fedora Core 11 OS is running on Disk1. Disk2 seems not mounted as I did not see it in df -k result. Actually Disk2 was added as additional disk before installing Fedora Core 11 and it is a used disk before. I thought Fedora Core 11 install take care of mounting it and of course not formatting. Now I would like to format it and mount it. Could someone let me know how to on this.

Thanks
Torpedo
