What you listed is what I've always done. I ran FDISK /MBR from a boot disk
(not from the HDD), and ran FDISK again to remove the linux partition. I
then either create another FAT32 partition or use something like Partition
Magic to "stretch" the C: partition to one partition.

I recall something on the web about blowing away Linux from a Windows box.
