Why not install linux to the 30 gig drive and leave XP on the 120 ? If
you follow the "custom partitioning" part of the install, it should be
fairly obvious. while you're at it, it's always a good idea to make a
separate /home partition, so you won't have to move your stuff. format
you home partition fat32, and you'll be able to get at those files from
Windows.
