Ken -
As I understand it (and as would make syntactical sense) this would do
exactly that. Clear all partitions on this specific drive. For reasons
out of my control *grumble* work forbids it at this moment *grumble*,
I'm not able to take a gander at the RH Kickstart guide at the moment -
but I would imagine that this is correct.
Hope that helps
