One sure-fire way to change the formatting on a disk is to first zap
it with one of those bulk tape erasers. That will wipe the previous
formatting clean. (Of course, I've never even SEEN a 'superdrive,'
so I don't know what they can do. Maybe one of the local gurus here
can offer a more elegant solution.
