You can simple do that under RH with "mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1" but be aware that you are loosing all your data on that partition !!! also see the manpage of mkfs.ext3 for the possible options.

Is there such utility in linux/Redhat, so I don't have to reboot and use other partition software? I don't care about preserving data, since I simply don't need the partition anylonger, and would like to use the available space. Thanks in advance for any info Reuben D.
