You have to add alpha channel from the image menubar through Layer → Transparency → Add alpha Channel. http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-layer-alpha-add.html With an alpha channel, the default operation of eraser is deleting to transparency. However, if you want to turn white to transparency, you'd better use Colors → Color to alpha.
