Nope !
Fdisk will look at the current MBR and work from that.
The problem is that when something went wrong with the
MBR
Fdisk
can't
delete it all.
If u ask an IBM or seagate Tech they will tell u 2a
tool
like
Zap.
It will tottaly erase MBR and u will start from scratch.
I use it all the time, because NTFS and Fdisk normally
don't
get
along
that
wel.

Would
FDISK
do
the
same
job? I've used that before.
