reusing disk

[chuck lawrence <celawrence@xxxxxxx>]

next question...

I'm (re)using an old linux boot disk, now in an external usb enclosure. 
 it has a small /boot volume (/dev/sdb1) and a larger / volume 
(/dev/sdb3).  I gather /dev/sdb2, if it were there, was previously swap.

can I delete all this and return it to a single disk?  all the tools 
I've tried so far (fdisk, parted) assume these are distinct disks, and 
offer to create/delete partitions within them.

adv(thanks)ance
