Partitioned hard drive with old hidden files

[thebutler1]

I partitioned my hard drive to in order to have an option of running tiger or leopard and thought that the partition would wipe my hard drive clean and was acceptant of this; however, I recently noticed that my disk space is running dangerously low and have discovered that all the crap I had on my hard drive before is still lingering in the depths of my hard drive. Anyways, is there any way I could just completely wipe my hard drive because I have a complete mess of duplicate files and songs that I don't want to even bother sorting through.

Completely wipe it?

Use Erase in Disk Utility.

If you want to erase the entire drive, including your install of OS X, you have to erase from the Install DVD.
