The only option to get a stable system is to format the HD and then you can install the cPanel.

That isnt strictly true, depends on the OS but i have 2 servers that the DC would only build with plesk that I have manually cleaned and are now running cpanel.

Dependant on the partition schema and RAID config you might need some work done on the partition table (xfs is a pig to resize but chirpy from configserver has done this for me a couple of times now)

It is perfectly possible to have a clean and stable system that was originally on plesk, and it isnt actually that difficult to achieve.

What OS is running on your box?
