Windows Disk Signature Q?

[BuddyM]

Hello Tivo Gods

I am new to TIVO upgrading but an experience PC guy, and limited Linux.

Is there any problems with using a disk that previously had WindowsXP? I am concerned about the Windows Disk Signature and does it go away with the partition?
Can't I just delete the partition and use it as a single drive upgrade?

Thx

Hello Buddyand welcome to TCF!

No need to worry about Windows signatures; the recommended procedures (WinMFS, MFSTools, etc) all replace the MBR on the disk thus erasing any and all Windows signatures.
