Disk troubles (again...)

Hi people,
How do I format a disk for linux, I tried recovering my 114 gig I was having 
the last lot of troubles with, but I am having problems with that too.

I tried using parted /dev/hdb then mklabel bsd and then exit, that seemed to 
go well. But then when I tried fdisk -l /dev/hdb, it said there wasn't a 
valid partition table. How do I do this please? I just want 1 ext2 partition 
filling the hole disk.

Cheers,

Chris Norman
