[Tfug] Cleaning old Windows Disks

[earljviolet at deserthowler.com]

One of my duties at World Care is rebuilding old Windows computers.  I was
recently told some of these disks might have root kits that can hide from
Windows fdisk.  I have no clue as to what hides in Windows (nor do I
really care).  I think using badblocks with -w option will clean off
everything on the disk.  Does anyone know if I am right here?
