From a Linux desktop you can use the __Disks__ utility to reformat the entire drive (not simply its partitions), first unmounting and then deleting all partitions, then using "Format Volume" with an Ext4 format. Alternately, you can use gparted (the Gnome Partition Editor) (installed via: {{sudo apt install gparted}}).
