Hi Jan,

Ubuntu Live DVD has an app called Disks, It is a GUI app for formatting Disks etc

Click on DASH icon, type Disks, click on the Icon

You should be able to delete the partitions, and create new ones

Subject: [ubuntu-za] Portable hard drive

Good day all, my new portable Samsung T3 SSD (250 GB) needs installation
of extfat-utils to open in Ubuntu. I cannot install this software when
running on live cd. Is there a better way out, e.g. by reformatting to
get away from its current exFAT HTFS/NTFS?

Many thanks,

Jan
