Unmount the partition and run fdisk /dev/hdx, type m for help there and delete all the partitions you want to wipe out and create a new partition on top of that.
That doesn't actually erase any data, FYI. As others have said, to erase the disk and prevent most data-recovery attempts, you need to write something to each and every track using 'dd'. /Per Jessen, Zürich
