Secure erase options are available only for some types of storage devices.

Boot it from the snow leopard cd (right after it turns on with the CD in, press and hold down 'c' and it will boot from the cd).

Restoring the image and then re-installing Mac OS X is also not an option for me because of the necessity of the hybrid EFI/MBR partition that is necessary for dual-booting (concurrent to the fact that I want OS X as the first partition on the disk.)
